Question : Select the option that will improve the underlined part of the given sentence. In case no improvement is needed, select 'No improvement required'.
He knows how bad I wanted a baby.
Option 1: how badly
Option 2: what bad
Option 3: No improvement required
Option 4: badly how
Correct Answer: how badly
Solution : The correct choice is the first option .
Explanation : Badly should replace "bad", as it is the adverbial form of "bad", and it helps convey the extreme desire of the speaker to want a baby. It is being used to modify the verb "wanted" in a sense that emphasises the intensity of the desire.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "He knows how badly I wanted a baby."
