Question
He was a tiny man, barely five feet tall, with a spright walk.
Options:
A .  a sprightly walk
B .  spright walk
C .  a sprightly walking
D .  No improvement
Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)To modify a verb, an adjective or other adverb, or an adverb is used. An adverb that modifies a verb appears immediately before the word it modifies. Therefore, it should be a ‘sprightly walk’ in place of ‘spright walk’. The word ‘sprightly’ means ‘(especially of older people) full of life and energy; lively’.
