article
adjective
proper adjective
adverb
adjective
The word "article" in the sentence is used as a noun, referring to a written piece of information or a publication.
To identify the choice that best describes the enclosed word, we need to analyze the sentence in which the word is used. In this case, the enclosed word is "something." Let's break down the sentence: "However, when a science article is about something that (strongly) appeals to me, such as snowflakes, I become interested."
From the sentence, we can gather that "something" is being used as a noun to refer to an unspecified object or idea. Looking at the provided choices, we can see that the options are: article, adjective, proper adjective, and adverb.
Out of these options, "article" does not accurately describe "something" because "something" does not refer to a specific article. Similarly, "adjective" does not fit because "something" is not modifying a noun. "Proper adjective" refers to an adjective derived from a proper noun, which is not the case here.
Finally, we are left with "adverb." However, the word "something" does not fulfill the role of an adverb in this sentence. Therefore, the correct choice is none of the given options as none of them accurately describe the word "something" in the sentence.
