  • A Fastest
  • B Fastly
  • C As fastly
  • D As fast
  • E In fastness
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
omplete sentence: He went up quickly and returned as fast.

Explanation:
"As fast" is the correct comparative form used here to indicate that his return was equally quick as his ascent.

Fastest refers to the superlative form, which would not fit in this context.

Fastly is not a word; the adverb form of "fast" is just "fast."

As fastly is incorrect because "fastly" is not a standard adverb.

In fastness is also incorrect and not a common expression.
