Question 1
1 / -0

Identify the option which makes correct use of the adverb.

A
He has not come yet.

B
He has not yet come

C
He yet has not come

D
Both A and B

Solution

'Yet' is an adverb of time which is used to show that something has not happened by a particular time. Both the options A and B are correct but the option B is considered as more formal thus, not used usually in spoken English. So the option D is the correct answer.
Question 2
1 / -0

Identify the option which makes correct use of the adverb.

A
He spoke well English.

B
He spoke English well.

C
Well he spoke English.

D
He well spoke English.

Solution

'Well' is an adverb of manner which is often placed after the sentence's object or main verb. 'Spoke' is the main verb in the given sentence and 'English' is an object. Options A, C, and D are not grammatically correct. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
Question 3
1 / -0

Form the adverb of the following word:

rough

A
roughily

B
roughly

C
roughful

D
rougher

Solution

An adverb is a word or phrase that qualifies or changes an adjective, verb or another adverb, to express a relation of a situation, cause etc.
The correct answer is A)roughly as it ends in 'ly' and is spelled correctly.
Options A,C, and D are wrong as the word is misspelled, 'roughful' is not a word, and 'rougher' is a comparative adjective respectively.
Question 4
1 / -0

beautiful

A
beautifuly

B
beautifully

C
beautifuler

D
beautifulest

Solution

An adverb is a word or phrase that qualifies or changes an adjective, verb or other adverb, to express a relation of situation, cause etc.
The correct answer is B) beautifully as it ends with 'ly' and is spelled correctly.
Options A,B, and D are wrong as they are misspelled.
Question 5
1 / -0

Choose the option that puts the adverb in the correct position in the sentence:

I have seen a giraffe never.

A
I never have seen a giraffe.

B
I have never seen a giraffe.

C
I have seen a never giraffe.

D
NO CHANGE

Solution

'Never' is an adverb of frequency. The rule says that if a sentence has one verb, place the adverb of frequency in the middle of the sentence so that it is positioned after the subject but before the verb. 'I' is the subject and 'seen' is the verb in the sentence. Thus, option B is the correct answer per the rule.
Question 6
1 / -0

Identify the option which makes correct use of the adverb.

A
The baby still is sleeping.

B
The baby is sleeping still.

C
The baby is still sleeping.

D
Still the baby is sleeping.

Solution

'Still' is an adverb of time which is used for emphasizing that something is continuing. The rule says we don't use still before the auxiliary verb or modal verb in an affirmative clause. It is placed after the first auxiliary verb. 'Is' is an auxiliary verb. The given sentence is an example of an affirmative clause thus, option C is the correct answer.
Question 7
1 / -0

Name the part of speech of the underlined word in the following sentence:
He is, therefore, unable to play any more games.

A
Pronoun

B
Noun

C
Preposition

D
Adverb

Solution

An 'adverb' tells us the way someone does something, or in other words how a verb is performed by modifying the adjective, verb or other adverbs; while an adjective describes the verb itself. In this sentence, 'therefore' is providing the reasoning for the verb (is) and is also connecting the two halves of the sentence, and therefore is a conjunctional adverb. Thus, Option D) is correct.
Question 8
1 / -0

Identify the option which makes correct use of the adverb.

A
You should be punctual always.

B
You always should be punctual.

C
You should always be punctual.

D
You should be always punctual.

Solution

'Always' is an adverb of frequency. The rule says that if a sentence has one verb, place the adverb of frequency in the middle of the sentence so that it is positioned after the subject but before the verb. 'You' is the subject in the sentence and 'be' is the verb hence 'always' should be placed after the subject and before the verb.
Thus, option C is the correct answer.

1 / -0

Choose a suitable adverb from the options given below for blank $$[1]$$.

A
cleverly

B
hardly

C
heavily

D
rightly

Solution

An adverb is a word or set of words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.
They answer questions such as how, when, where, why, how often, how much etc.
In the given sentence, the verb is 'said'. The sentence talks about a universal truth that 'if we do not take pains, we gain nothing'.
Therefore, we can use the adverb 'rightly' which explains the truth in the sentence.
Option A) cleverly is the adverb form of 'clever' and is used when there is a defined subject such as a person mentioned in the sentence. Therefore, option A) is incorrect.
Option B) hardly is incorrect in the given context of the sentence.
Option C) heavily is also incorrect in the given context of the statement.
Therefore, the correct adverb to be used in the given sentence is option D) rightly.
