Question 1 Report

Choose the option that best complete the gap. My mother was _____ annoyed with me for coming late.
Answer Details
The option that best completes the gap is "very" - "My mother was very annoyed with me for coming late." "Very" is an adverb used to intensify an adjective or another adverb, and in this case, it intensifies the adjective "annoyed." Therefore, it emphasizes how strongly the mother felt about her child coming late. "Just" wouldn't make sense because it implies that the mother was only slightly annoyed. "Neither" is incorrect because it means "not one or the other," and there are only two options presented. "Hotly" also doesn't fit because it means "in an intense or angry way," which could work in some contexts, but doesn't quite fit the scenario presented.
