This questions was previously asked in

SSC MTS 27th October 2021 Shift-2

simply

seriously

hardly

directly

- He was simply injured, but recovered very soon.

- "Simply" indicates something is straightforward or easy, not severe. It doesn't fit well with the idea of recovering from an injury.

- He was seriously injured, but recovered very soon.

- "Seriously" describes a severe condition, making it a suitable description for an injury that is significant but from which recovery is possible.

- He was hardly injured, but recovered very soon.

- "Hardly" suggests something that scarcely happened, meaning almost not injured, contradicting the context of recovery.

- He was directly injured, but recovered very soon.

- "Directly" refers to the manner or immediacy of an action rather than the severity, making it unsuitable here.
