• B. strong enough
• C. so strong

Answer 1

The correct option is B strong enough

The simplest definition of an adjective is that it is a word that describes or clarifies a noun.Adjectives describe nouns by giving some information about an object's size, shape, age, color, origin or material. We would be analyzing the usage of adjectives in this sentence.

In the first Option, "too strong". Strong is the adjective here and "too" is intensifying the nature of the noun. But, "too" can only be used in positive sentence. So, this is a wrong option.

In the second case, "Strong Enough", Enough is one of those words that can be used as an adjective and an adverb. The adverb enough is used to modify an adjective. In this case, it goes after the adjective it modifies. This can be the correct option.

Option C, is wrong as "so" is not used in negative sentence.

Option D, "as" is used when there are two persons involves. Here only one is present which makes it wrong.

Option B is correct.
