Air Travel is the ______ growing emitter of climate change gases.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. fastest.
- "Fastest" is a suitable option.
- "Fastest" describes the highest rate of growth, which fits the context of air travel increasing rapidly in its emission of climate change gases.
- Compared to other option
- Fastly: In this particular context, this is not grammatically correct. Although "fastly" is an adverb, it is not often used in English.
- Fast: While this is an appropriate adjective or adverb, it lacks the superlative connotation that this situation requires.
- Fasting: This term has no relation with the given situation; it simply means not eating.
