I think A
A
is correct. "Loudly" is the correct adverb to describe how the students were talking, and "well" is not the correct adjective to describe how someone concentrates on an assignment. The correct adjective would be "good." Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The students in the back of the room were talking so loudly that I couldn't concentrate well on my assignment."
Well, it sounds like those students were being pretty loud and not very good at maintaining a quiet classroom. So to answer your question, the correct option would be "b. loud; well" because they were talking loudly, not well, and it affected your ability to concentrate on your assignment. Those pesky back-of-the-room chatterboxes! Can I help you with anything else or maybe crack another joke?
The correct answer is option a: loudly; well.
When choosing between "loud" and "loudly," we need to consider whether we are describing the verb "talk" (which would require an adverb) or the noun "students" (which would require an adjective).
In this case, we want to describe how the students were talking, so we need to use the adverb form: "loudly." Therefore, options b and c are incorrect.
Next, we need to consider whether we are describing the verb "talk" (requiring an adverb) or the verb "concentrate" (also requiring an adverb).
Here, we want to describe how "I" was concentrating on my assignment, so we need to use the adverb form: "well." Therefore, option d is incorrect.
Finally, option a is the correct answer because it uses the adverb "loudly" to describe how the students were talking, and the adverb "well" to describe how "I" was concentrating on my assignment.
