Grammar: Adverb

Question:

Choose the correct Adverb for the blank in the sentence :

Rahul drove his car _____ to reach Delhi soon.

Options:

fastly

fluently

swiftly

firmly

Correct Answer:

swiftly

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → swiftly

"Rahul drove his car _____ to reach Delhi soon" is "swiftly."

Explanation:

"Fastly" is not a standard adverb; the correct form is "fast."
"Fluently" is an adverb used to describe how someone speaks a language smoothly and accurately; it doesn't fit the context of driving a car.
"Firmly" is an adverb that describes how something is done with strength or determination, which is not appropriate in the context of driving a car.

"Swiftly" is the correct adverb here because it means moving quickly and efficiently, which fits the context of Rahul wanting to reach Delhi soon.
