The correct answer is 'very sweet'

Key Points

  • Here 'sweet' is an adjective which qualifies a subject (Noun/ Pronoun)
  • However, an 'adverb' is required to modify a Verb
    • Example- Phillip sings loudly in the shower. 
  • Thus, 'sweet' will be replaced by 'sweetly'.
     

Correct Sentence- Rahul sings very sweetly when he is in a good mood.
