Correct Answer: keep loved ones and those near
Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.
In the sentence, the verb keeps doesn't agree with the subject's cell phones, which is plural. The correct verb form for the third-person plural subject "cell phones" is keep .
In this context, near is more grammatically accurate because it functions as an adjective modifying those. Near is an adjective indicating proximity, while nearly is an adverb suggesting almost or close to but not quite.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: Cell phones keep loved ones and those near them well connected.
