• B. fast
• C. very slow

Answer 1

The correct option is D more slowly

The given sentence is an example of the adverb of comparative degree. An adverb that compares two things becomes a comparative degree of an adverb. 'Slowly' is an adverb of positive degree. 'More slowly' is a comparative form of degree. Options B and C are not using any comparative form of degree.

Thus, option D is the correct answer out of all the options.
