Fill the blanks in the sentences in List-I with their appropriate adverbs in the List-II.
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (Sentences) | (Words) |
| (A) Arif spoke so_________ that the audience was mesmerized. | (I) vaguely |
| (B) Akash ___________ agreed to apologize after much persuasion. | (II) briskly |
| (C) My parents ________ remembered meeting Shyam years ago. | (III) eloquently |
| (D) The officer walked ________ towards the crime scene lest the clues get compromised. | (IV) reluctantly |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
(A) - (III) eloquently → Speaking eloquently (fluently and persuasively) mesmerizes an audience.
(B) - (IV) reluctantly → "After much persuasion" indicates he agreed unwillingly/reluctantly.
(C) - (I) vaguely → Remembering something from "years ago" would be unclear/vague.
(D) - (II) briskly → Walking briskly (quickly and efficiently) shows urgency to reach the crime scene without compromising clues.
Hence, Option 4: (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II) → Each adverb perfectly matches the context: eloquent speech mesmerizes, reluctant agreement after persuasion, vague memories from long ago, and brisk movement to preserve evidence → correct
