Which three words have similar meanings: Rapidly, Exceedingly, Hastily, Eventually, Swiftly?

  1. Rapidly, Eventually, Swiftly

  2. Exceedingly, Hastily, Swiftly

  3. Rapidly, Hastily, Swiftly

  4. Rapidly, Exceedingly, Eventually

The correct answer is: Rapidly, Hastily, Swiftly

The correct answer encompasses words that convey similar meanings associated with quickness or speed. "Rapidly," "Hastily," and "Swiftly" all emphasize a sense of moving quickly or doing something in a hurry. - "Rapidly" indicates something happening at a fast pace. - "Hastily" suggests actions taken quickly, often with little thought or preparation. - "Swiftly" means performing an action with great speed. Together, these three words create a consistent theme of quickness in their definitions, which is why this grouping is appropriate. The other options include words that either express different concepts or do not align closely with the theme of speed, such as "Eventually," which implies a sense of time rather than speed.
