Question

Choose the correct intensifier from the options given below:
Open the window, will you? It's _________ boiling in here.

• A. quite
• B. totally
• C. very
• D. really

Answer 1

The correct option is D really

Boiling is the adjective being used here. Now, to indicate a proper degree for this adjective, we need to use the correct adverb. 'quite' or 'totally' don't give us a sense of how heated the room really is. 'very' cannot be used since the sentence will be grammatically incorrect. Hence, the correct option is D. 'really'

The correct sentence is: Open the window, will you? It's really boiling in here.
