Answer 2

The correct sequence is:

(A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III)

Explanation:

(A) "I thought the restaurant would be expensive but it was __________ affordable." (II) "reasonably" fits here because it means "fairly" or "moderately" affordable. "Reasonably" is used to indicate that something was more affordable than expected.

(B) "It was a serious accident. But the car was _________ damaged." (IV) "hardly" fits here because it means "barely" or "almost not." In this context, it suggests that the car was barely damaged despite the seriousness of the accident.

(C) "The meeting was a disaster as it was very __________ organized." (I) "badly" fits here because it means "poorly" organized. "Badly" is used to describe something that was done in a poor or unsatisfactory manner.

(D) "Mira is gifted, she has the ability to learn any language __________." (III) "quickly" fits here because it suggests that Mira is able to learn any language at a fast pace. "Quickly" describes the speed at which she can learn languages.
