Correct Answer: completely


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Explanation : In the context of the sentence, completely is the correct adverb to convey the idea that forgetting her birthday was absolute or total, leaving no room for partial remembrance.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Completeness refers to the state of being complete or whole.
  • Completed is the past tense of the verb "complete," indicating that something has finished.
  • Completing is the present participle of the verb "complete," indicating an ongoing action or the act of finishing something.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "I completely forgot her birthday, and I don’t know how to make it up to her."
