• A. The naughty child deliberately pushed the vase off the table.
• B. The naughty child pushed the vase off the table because it was deliberate.
• C. The naughty child pushed the vase off the table in a deliberate manner.
• D. The naughty child pushing the vase off the table was a deliberate action.

Answer 1

The correct option is A The naughty child deliberately pushed the vase off the table.

Since the sentences indicate a manner of action, an adverb of manner must be used. Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the options do not use adverb of manner, so incorrect.
