Explanation:
Adverbs are those words that modify a verb or clause or sentences. They change or influence the meaning of the verb in the sentence.
On the other hand, adjectives help modify a noun and further help define nouns and pronouns. They deal with the nouns of the sentence while adverbs are based of the verbs.
Among the given sentences, sentences 2,6, and 8 are adjectives for they modify the noun(dinner, lobsters, arrivals) in their sentences whereas sentences 1,3,4,5, and 7 are adverbs as they modify the verb(feels, funny, place, run, read) in the sentences.
