Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
Jane and Pete are ________ nice people! But I can't stand their kids.

• A. so many
• B. so
• C. such a
• D. such

Answer 1

The correct option is D such

Answer : D

Adverbs of degree are words used to describe degree of a quality or action.

Some grammar rules for using "so" and "such":

• "Such" is used before noun, noun with the indefinite article "a"/"an" --> Such + [noun phrase], even if there is an adjective before the noun
• "So" is used before adjectives or adverbs --> So + [adjective phrase] / [adverb phrase]

Here in the sentence, "people" is a noun and "nice" is an adjective. Therefore, "such" is the suitable option.

Thus, the correct complete sentence is:

Jane and Pete are SUCH nice people!
