B Correct answer
Explanation

This is the correct option as this part of the sentence has error. In this sentence, the word ‘quick’ is used to modify the verb ‘worked’. But, ‘quick’ is an adjective and adjectives cannot modify verbs. Thus, to make the sentence correct, adjective ‘quick’ should be replaced by adverb ‘quickly’.
