Question : Directions: In the following question, choose the correct alternative which will improve the part of the sentence given in quotes.
Sumathi was "a industriously" and willing worker.
- an industrious
- a industrious
- an industriously
- No Improvement
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 1
Solution : The correct choice is the first option .
Explanation : The word "a industriously" should be replaced with "an industrious" to convey the intended meaning that Sumathi was a hardworking and willing worker. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, but in this sentence, we need an adjective to describe Sumathi. Moreover, industrious should be followed by the article "an", as it begins with a vowel sound.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "Sumathi was an industrious and willing worker."
