  • The given sentence is in the past tense as the verb "looked" is the simple past tense form of the verb "look."

  • Hence, "angrily" is the correct word to be substituted.

Therefore, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Correct Sentence: "He looked at me angrily when I interrupted him."

  Additional Information
