Explanation:

The correct answer is 'so friendly as'.
• The underlined part in the given sentence is grammatically incorrect. Here, 'so friendly as' should be used instead of 'so friendly like'.
• We often use so when we mean 'to such a great extent.
• With this meaning, 'so' is a degree adverb that modifies adjectives and other adverbs. We use 'as' to connect a result with a cause.
• Example: His comments on the book were so childish as to be not worth considering. • Thus, the correct answer is Option 1.
