A. Read the following passage and notice the words in italics:

Mashrafi runs fast. He knows how to prepare for a match. He is taking preparations for the upcoming world cup tournament. He is taking a very careful preparation. Other team mates have joined the team here. They are going to sit together with the coach. They will decide on some regulations for themselves tonight. They are always very optimistic.

Can you guess what their functions are?

These words modify either the verb, or the adjective/adverb they are with.

These words are adverbs.

Activity:

Identify functions of the adverbs in italics in the passage and say what questions they answer. One is done for you:

'fast' modifies the verb 'runs'; (It answers the question 'how')

Adverbs modify verbs by telling how, when, where, or to what extent the action takes place.

Note:
An adverb is a modifying word.
An adverb mainly modifies a verb. But an adverb also modifies an adjective or an adverb.

B. Identify the adverbs in the following sentences and say which words they modify

a. A wagon train that was very long started out from Laksam.
b. The trail through the mountains was fairly hazardous.
c. Bangladesh is a densely populated country.
d. The students are inside.
e. She will go to Rajshahi tomorrow.
f. He will join the party tonight.
g. Uncle came home yesterday.
