answer explanation: 

<p>Gyeon Corporation's continuing education policy states that <strong><u>regularly</u></strong> learning new skills enhances creativity and focus.</p>
<div data-answer="d"><span style="font-size: 13.008px;">The correct answer is (D) regularly.
In this sentence, the word "regularly" is used as an adverb to modify the verb "learning." Adverbs are used to describe how, when, or where an action is done. In this case, "regularly" describes how the action of learning new skills is done - in a regular or consistent manner.
The other options do not fit the sentence grammatically or semantically.&nbsp;</span></div><div data-answer="d"><span style="font-size: 13.008px;"><br></span></div><div data-answer="d"><span style="font-size: 13.008px;">(A) regular is an adjective, not an adverb, and does not describe how the action is done.&nbsp;</span></div><div data-answer="d"><span style="font-size: 13.008px;">(B) regularity is a noun, not an adverb, and does not describe how the action is done.</span></div><div data-answer="d"><span style="font-size: 13.008px;">(C) regulate is a verb, not an adverb, and does not describe how the action is done.</span><br></div>
