Choose the sentence where the word "meticulously" has been used most appropriately.

  1. The audience meticulously spoke loudly during the play.
  2. He meticulously rushed through her project work.
  3. He meticulously checked every detail of the report.
  4. The team meticulously played but lost the match.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

'Meticulously' means with great attention to detail. Checking every detail of a report is exactly such an action, so sentence 3 is appropriate. Speaking loudly, rushing through work, or playing and losing do not involve careful attention to detail, so the adverb clashes in the other sentences.
