Choose the correct option to fill in the blank in the given sentence:

He closed the jewel-encrusted box_____ and left the room without waking anyone.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Since he left 'without waking anyone', the box must have been closed silently. 'Noiselessly' conveys this. 'Fastly' is not a standard English word, while 'piercingly' and 'loudly' contradict the context.
