Question

cal ended the conversation abruptly; for instance, i was still speaking when he walked away. using context clues, what does the underlined word mean?
kindly
unexpectedly
tiredly

Explanation:

The context clue is that the speaker was still speaking when Cal walked away. This shows that the conversation ended in a sudden and unforeseen way. "Abruptly" means suddenly or unexpectedly. "Kindly" means in a kind manner, which doesn't fit the context. "Tiredly" means in a tired way, which is not relevant. "Truthfully" means in a truthful manner, also not relevant.

Answer:

unexpectedly
