Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

I've not _____ been skiing, but I'd like to try it.

• A. Never
• B. Ever
• C. Already
• D. Just

Answer 1

The correct option is B Ever

The sentence needs to add a sense of time to the action given by its verb. So, it needs an adverb of time. An adverb of time is a word that describes when, for how long, or how often a certain action happened. Option B is the correct answer as ‘ever,’ as an adverb of time adds the sense of time to the sentence. Option A cannot be used as ‘never’ cannot be used with ‘not’. Options C and D cannot be used as they would render the sentence meaningless.
