Correct Answer: gently


Solution : The correct choice is the second option .

Gently means in a kind, tender manner. The sentence already contains a modifier, and thus, no other word other than an adverb is necessary. This helps convey the intended meaning that the baby needs to be put in bed softly and kindly.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "You need to put the baby very gently on the bed."
