Zorluk: OrtaAdjective and Adverb Usage

Which forms of the modifiers in parentheses correctly complete the blanks in the passage below?

Cevap:During his historic solo flight across the Atlantic, Charles Lindbergh had to fly 【cautiously】 (cautious) through thick fog, navigating almost entirely by instruments. Because the cockpit was designed with minimal forward visibility, he could not easily see the horizon, making the journey 【extremely】 (extreme) dangerous.

Cevap

cautiously; extremely
The correct forms are the adverbs 'cautiously' and 'extremely'. In the first blank, 'cautiously' is required to modify the verb 'fly' to explain how Lindbergh flew. In the second blank, 'extremely' is required to modify the adjective 'dangerous' to show the intensity of the danger.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the grammatical function required for the first blank.
The word modifies the verb 'fly', which is an action verb describing Lindbergh's movement.
Since the word describes how the action of flying was performed, an adverb must be used instead of an adjective.
2
Determine the correct adverbial form of the parenthetical word 'cautious'.
The adverb form of 'cautious' is 'cautiously'.
Regular adverbs are formed by adding the suffix '-ly' to the base adjective.
3
Analyze the grammatical function required for the second blank.
The word modifies the adjective 'dangerous', which describes the noun 'journey'.
Since the modifier describes the degree of the adjective 'dangerous' rather than the noun 'journey' itself, an adverb is required.
4
Determine the correct adverbial form of the parenthetical word 'extreme'.
The adverb form of 'extreme' is 'extremely'.
Regular adverbs are formed by adding the suffix '-ly' to the base adjective.
