Correct Answer: hovered exact


Solution : The correct choice is the second option .

The error in the sentence is the phrase hovered exact . The word exact is an adjective, but in this context, it should be an adverb to describe how the helicopter hovered. So, it needs to be changed to exactly , an adverb modifying the verb hovered .

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The helicopter of the enemies hovered exactly over their bunker.
