Let’s go through each sentence one by one. The instruction says: use the adjective in brackets or make an adverb (adj + ly) as necessary.
That means:
- If the word is already an adverb (like “always” or “never”), just use it as is.
- If it’s an adjective, add “-ly” to turn it into an adverb — unless it doesn’t make sense that way, but in these cases, they all do.
Let’s solve each:
1. (heavy) → heavy + ly = heavily
“It is raining heavily.”
✔
2. (abnormal) → abnormal + ly = abnormally
“Sometimes, he behaves abnormally.”
✔
3. (accident) → This is a noun! But we need an adverb. So we use “accidentally” (from accident + ally).
“She accidentally swallowed a coin.”
✔
4. (always) → Already an adverb. Just use “always”.
“I always go to bed before 10 p.m.”
✔
5. (annual) → annual + ly = annually
“These animals migrate annually in search of food.”
✔
6. (anxious) → anxious + ly = anxiously
“She was anxiously looking at me for my reply.”
✔
7. (awkward) → awkward + ly = awkwardly
“She laughed awkwardly.”
✔
8. (normal) → normal + ly = normally
“I normally go to the gym.”
✔
9. (occasional) → occasional + ly = occasionally
“I occasionally read newspapers.”
✔
10. (never) → Already an adverb. Use “never”.
“I never want to remember that.”
✔
All done! Let’s write them out clearly.
Final Answer:
1. heavily
2. abnormally
3. accidentally
4. always
5. annually
6. anxiously
7. awkwardly
8. normally
