Thanks for the website, Writeacher! I figured it out. The answer is C, right?

And I'm not guessing, Ms. Sue.

No.

Please explain why you think "his" is an adverb. What did you read in my explanation or the link that convinced you?

Oops, I meant D. Sorry.

OK. Why do you think D is the answer?

Because it's in or durning the first part of a period of time, a course of action, a series of events, etc.

Example: early in the year

Actually, the correct answer is D) early. The adverb in this sentence is "early" because it describes the time at which Joseph went to school. To identify the adverb in a sentence, you can ask yourself what word is modifying a noun, verb, or adjective. In this case, "early" describes the time (verb) at which Joseph went to school.
