Choose the appropriate word to replace the underlined word for formal correspondence in the given sentence:
Kindly forward the emails quickly.
(A) Promptly
(B) Superfast
(C) Request
(D) Elapsed
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → (A) Only
Promptly means done or happening without delay, which is a formal way to request swift action.
Superfast is informal and overly exaggerated.
Request is not a replacement for "forward" and doesn't convey the action of sending something on.
Elapsed means "passed" and doesn't fit the context of requesting speed.
Therefore, only option (A), "promptly," provides a formal and suitable replacement for "quickly" in this context.
