Question 39
Back to Exercise
The miser gazed ...... at the pile of gold coins in front of him.
- A avidly Correct
- B admiringly
- C thoughtfully
- D earnestly
Correct Answer: Option A
Thoughtfully = having a good intention towards.
Admiringly = is almost equivalent to thoughtfully.
Earnest = is to show sign of interest or promise of what is to come.
In the question, since the subject being miser, the adjective cannot be positive. The adjective must depict the qualities of miser.
Hence avid (A).
Avid = Having an eager desire for something.
