The rain pounded the windows, and Fredrick couldn't shake the gloom that descended on him as they drove past the baseball field. He was supposed to have a baseball game, and the coach was going to put Fredrick in as the pitcher, but it was cancelled because of rain. Instead, Fredrick pulled out his baseball cards, hoping the familiar faces of the famous players would cheer him. First, Fredrick sorted the cards by team, then by the year the card was printed. He examined each one before carefully putting it back into its plastic cover and filing it away. When he finished, the rain had stopped, and he realized that he felt better. 19. Fredrick organized his cards. Group of answer choices relentlessly incorrectly alphabetically methodically

Fredrick methodically organized his cards.

Explanation:

Relentlessly refers to doing something in an intense or harsh way. It could be an option, but there is not much in the passage to say Fredrick organized the cards relentlessly. His action is not described in any way that makes it seem harsh or intense.

Incorrectly refers to doing something the wrong way. There is no indication that Fredrick misplaced a card or did anything wrong while sorting them. This is not an option as well.

Alphabetically would mean he used the way the letters are ordered in the alphabet to organize the cards. However, we know he did not. Fredrick organized them by team and year. This is also not an option.

Finally, methodically refers to doing something systematically, in an orderly manner. As we can see, Fredrick did have a method to organize the cards. He sorted them according to certain standards. Therefore, this is the correct option to fill in the blank.
