Following are the answer to this question:

Explanation:

An adverb operates as a component of the speech, which modifies the verb, which is the represents of the action being taken by someone with an individual. The phrase-wide presence with an adverb and also a response to defines if the answer mentioned is an excuse or not?  for example :

Atlanta. "I hit him tormentedly with a stick," represents a reason as it implies a tentative action by hitting, that might not be intentional.
