Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. bravely.
Context: The sentence describes explorers trekking through a dense jungle. The blank needs an adverb that shows how they trekked.
Meaning of the words:
- • bravely – with courage, without fear
- • before – earlier in time
- • rarely – not often
- • ever – at any time
Correct word: bravely

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
