Which sentence correctly follows adverb placement rules?

AShe drives always carefully.

BShe carefully drives always.

CShe always drives carefully.

DShe drives carefully always.

Answer:

C. She always drives carefully.

Read Explanation:

Adverb placement in English follows specific rules:

  1. Adverbs of frequency (always, usually, often, sometimes, never) go before the main verb but after the auxiliary verb (if present).

    • She always drives carefully. (Correct placement of "always" before the main verb "drives.")

  2. Adverbs of manner (carefully, slowly, happily) usually go after the verb or object.

    • She drives carefully. ("Carefully" comes after the verb "drives.")
