选项 A.possibly
B.necessanly
C.adequately
D.reliably

答案 D

解析副词辨析题。[A]possibly可能地；[B]necessarily必要地；[C）adequately充分地；[D]reliably可靠地。该空下文enough．useful均为明显的正向词汇，偏向积极正面，故该空填人的词也应该保持一致，同为正向词汇，四个选项中，只有[C][D]两项为明显的正向词汇。空格处是修饰work的副词，possibly和necessarily与之搭配不当，可以排除。[C）adequately本身表示“充足地，充分地”，与enough意思重复，无法与之搭配。故本题可以利用排除法锁定[D]。
