Solution
Verified by Toppr

An adverb is a word that modifies/describes the meaning of a verb, adjective or another adverb. The verbs used in the given sentence are 'speaks' and 'can be'. The verb 'speaks' is being modified by the words, 'quite well'. Hence, it is an adverb. As this word describes how or in 'what manner' the subject 'He' speaks English, it is called an adverb of manner. Hence, option C is correct.
Option A is incorrect as it is a pronoun and not an adverb.
Option B is incorrect as it is a common noun and not an adverb.
Option D is incorrect as it is a proper noun and denotes the name of a language. It is not an adverb.
