Choose the suitable Adverb to complete the following sentence:
He _________ goes to gym every Saturday.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → usually
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.
Complete sentence: He usually goes to gym every Saturday. Going to the gym every Saturday is a habit, so usually fits.
| Option | What it tells | Example |
|---|---|---|
| (1) badly | "Badly" is an adverb of manner. "He badly goes to gym" makes no sense. | – |
| (2) usually (answer) | An adverb of frequency tells how often something happens: always, usually, often, sometimes, never. It goes before the main verb in the simple present. | She usually walks to school. |
| (3) yesterday | "Yesterday" refers to the past and cannot go with the present-tense "goes" or with "every Saturday". | – |
| (4) used to | "Used to" is not an adverb. It shows a past habit and takes the base form: "He used to go", not "used to goes". | – |
