(4) 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 .
The phrase real fast means to turn around quickly, and in the sentence, it means that when the person heard footsteps, he quickly turned his body in the opposite direction to see who was approaching.
Real fastly and real faster are not grammatically accurate and, hence, do not fit in the sentence.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "At the sound of footsteps, he turned around real fast ".
