Correct Answer: able to adapt himself to


Solution : The fourth option is correct.

Adopt should be changed to adapt to make the sentence grammatically accurate, as adapt means to adjust to new circumstances, which is the intended meaning whereas adopt means to start doing something new or in a new way.

So, the complete sentence is: He was not able to adapt himself to the new environment of the hostel.
