Choose the appropriate example of the Adverb of Manner:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → "She sings beautifully."
An adverb is a word that tells how, when, where or how much something happens. It can also describe an adjective or another adverb, for example she sings sweetly, very hot.
Adverb of manner:
- Beautifully tells how she sings. A word that tells how an action is done is an adverb of manner.
- Many such adverbs end in -ly (slowly, neatly, loudly).
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 2: "He arrived late." — Incorrect. “Late” tells when he arrived. So it is an adverb of time.
Option 3: "I walked home." — Incorrect. “Home” tells where I walked. So it is an adverb of place.
Option 4: "They rarely eat dinner." — Incorrect. “Rarely” tells how often they eat dinner. So it is an adverb of frequency.
