In which sentence is the word fast used as an adverb?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
Rationale: The correct answer is C because "fast" is used to describe how the cars moved, which is an adverbial function. In this sentence, "fast" modifies the verb "moved." In choices A, B, and D, "fast" is used as an adjective to describe a noun, not an adverb to describe a verb. Adjectives describe nouns, while adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. Therefore, choice C is the only sentence where "fast" is used correctly as an adverb.
