Correct Answer: brave.
Solution : The second option is correct.
In the original sentence, the adverb brave is used, but it should be modified to the adverb bravely to properly describe how the action of fighting the lion was carried out. Adverbs are used to modify verbs, and in this case, bravely is the correct adverbial form to indicate the manner in which the fighting took place.
Therefore, the corrected sentence is: He fought the lion bravely.
