Choose the appropriate adverb from the following options given below:-

The mangoes are ______ ripe and look so colorful.

almost

The correct answer is Option (3) - almost

The sentence "The mangoes are ______ ripe and look so colorful." needs an adverb that modifies the adjective ripe, indicating the degree of ripeness.

• "Almost" means nearly or not completely, which fits well: "The mangoes are almost ripe and look so colorful."

Why not the other options?

• "At once" means immediately and does not modify "ripe" correctly.
• "Enough" is used after an adjective, not before (e.g., "The mangoes are ripe enough.").
• "Extreme" is an adjective, not an adverb, and does not fit here.
