Answer 2

Sure, let's go through each sentence and choose between the adjective and the adverb:

1. Her face was (deep/deeply) lined. - Correct choice: deeply - Explanation: "Lined" is a predicate adjective describing the state of her face. Adverbs modify verbs, and in this case, "deeply" is the appropriate choice to modify the adjective "lined."

2. The sea is very (deep/deeply) here. - Correct choice: deep - Explanation: "Deep" is an adjective that describes the noun "sea." Adjectives modify nouns, and in this case, "deep" is the appropriate choice.

Still waters run (deep/deeply). - Correct choice: deep - Explanation: Similar to the previous sentence, "deep" is an adjective that describes the noun "waters."

3. They speak (high/highly) about him. - Correct choice: highly - Explanation: "Speak" is a verb, and adverbs modify verbs. Therefore, "highly" is the correct choice to modify the verb "speak."

He is a very (high/highly) placed person. - Correct choice: highly - Explanation: Similar to the previous sentence, "highly" is the correct choice to modify the adjective "placed."

The boy threw the stone (high/highly) up into the air. - Correct choice: high - Explanation: In this case, "high" is an adjective that describes the position of the stone.

4. He felt (happy/happily). (Happy/happily) it is no longer necessary. He smiled (happy/happily). - Correct choices: happy; happily; happy - Explanation: "Happy" is an adjective that describes the subject's feeling. "Happily" is an adverb that appropriately modifies the verb "felt." In the second sentence, "happy" is an adjective that describes the subject "it," and in the third sentence, "happy" is an adjective that describes the subject "He."

5. She spoke very (kind/kindly) to me. He (kind/kindly) waited for me. It was (kind/kindly) of him to wait for me. - Correct choices: kindly; kindly; kind - Explanation: In the first and second sentences, "kindly" is the correct choice as it modifies the verbs "spoke" and "waited." In the third sentence, "kind" is the correct choice as it is an adjective describing the subject "It."

6. Stay (clear/clearly) of us. The sky was (clear/clearly). Wait until you can think more (clear/clearly). - Correct choices: clear; clear; clearly - Explanation: In the first and second sentences, "clear" is the correct choice as it is an adjective that describes the object "us" and the noun "sky." In the third sentence, "clearly" is the correct choice as it modifies the verb "think."
