English Explanation

The correct answer is **きわめて (kiwamete)**. This adverb means 'extremely,' 'exceedingly,' or 'very,' and is used to emphasize a high degree of a certain state or quality. It is a more formal equivalent of とても or 非常に. In a sentence like 「彼の新しい小説は(きわめて)面白い。」 (His new novel is extremely interesting.), きわめて correctly modifies 面白い (interesting) to express that the level of interest is exceptionally high.
