Answer 2

Answer:

1. The aeroplane landed safely on the runway.

• An aeroplane always lands safely otherwise it can invite a disaster. Here safely is an adverb.

• An adverb may be defined as a word that modifies or adds meaning to a verb, an adjective or another adverb.

• Adverbs are formed by adding ly or lly after the words like adjective, verb, noun and so on.

2. The judge told him to answer the questions truthfully.

• We should always speak truths in front of a judge, it is very much necessary. We should not speak shyly or casually.

3. The cab driver drove recklessly. I was scared.

• I was scared due to reckless driving. Here scared indicates 'recklessly' is right.

4. If you want to be fit, eat healthily.

• We need healthy food to become healthy or fit.

5. Misers save money by living frugally.

• Frugally means very little and it is applicable for misers because they don't spend their lives lavishly or cheerfully.

6. Spendthrifts live lavishly.

• Spendthrifts never want to spend their lives like misers, they prefer lavishly.

7. Models and film actors dress stylishly.

• Model and actors are stylish, so, obviously they will dress stylishly, not like simply or shabbily.

8. The beggar was shabbily dressed.

• A beggar begs lives on begging, therefore he or she can't buy interesting or stylish dresses, shabbily signifies his poor economical background.

9. It was a grand wedding. The venue was decorated exquisitely.

• Grand wedding doesn't expect cheap or bad decoration.

10. The doctor who is an expert, examined the patient thoroughly.

• An expertise does not examine badly or painfully, so, thoroughly is correct.
