Correct Answer: Astonishingly


Solution :

To complete the sentence correctly, we need a word that conveys how the mother looked or felt in this situation. The word "astonishingly" is appropriate here. It means in a manner that causes astonishment or great surprise, which fits the context of the mother's reaction to her child's early walking.

So, the correct sentence is: "The mother looked astonishingly as her child began to walk much before the month prescribed by the doctors."
