Question

Replace the adverb in the following sentence with their synonym.
It was a fairly easy question.

• A. Beautifully
• B. Unjustly
• C. Politely
• D. Reasonably

Answer 1

The correct option is D Reasonably

The adverb, 'fairly' means 'to some extent but not very'. It means the same as 'reasonably'. Hence, option D is correct.

The adverb, 'beautifully' means 'in a beautiful way'. The adverb, 'usually' means 'in the way that most often happens'. The adverb, 'politely' means 'in a way that shows good manners and respect for the feelings of others'.

As the above three words do not mean the same as 'fairly, options A, B and C are incorrect.
