Answer 1

rolled his eyes slowly

Answer 2

The following sentence can be written as 'the old man lifted his eyes in a slow manner.'

An adjective can be defined as a word such as happy, intelligent, kind and smart.

An adjective normally modifies a noun and signifies a permanent or temporary quality with the noun.

As an example, a smart boy can be described as a boy who is different to other boys because he is smart.

For associating a quality with a noun, we do not always use adjectives.

As an example, in ‘a mere child’, the adjective mere is not used to denote the quality of the child.
