Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The correct improvement for the sentence is the first option.

"Very glad" adds emphasis to his feeling of happiness, making the sentence more expressive. It maintains the meaning of the sentence. "Too" is used in a negative sense and "very" is used in a positive sense.

So, the correct sentence should be: He was very glad to see his friend.
