The building with numerous arhes looked _ in the midnight.
Correct answer: D. magnificent
- A. Brightly
- B. Splendidly
- C. mysteriously
- D. magnificent
Explanation
The correct answer is 'magnificent.' In the sentence, the word needed to describe the appearance of the building is an adjective, not an adverb. 'Magnificent' accurately captures the grand and impressive nature of the building with numerous arches in the moonlight. The other options 'Brightly,' 'Splendidly,' and 'Mysteriously' are adverbs that focus on how something is done rather than describing the building itself.
