Solution

The correct option is C Nicely
The adverb, 'neatly' means 'in a neat way'. The word, 'nicely' means 'in a pleasant or satisfactory manner'. These two words have similar meanings. Hence, option C is correct.
'Vaguely' means 'in a way that is uncertain or unclear'.
'Tightly' means 'closely and firmly'.
'Sloppily' means 'in a messy or careless way'.
As the above three words, do not mean the same as 'in a neat way', options A. B and D are incorrect.
