Solution

The correct answer is "Jauntily". This word means to do something in a lively and cheerful way, which matches the context of the sentence. The other options do not convey the same meaning. "Sedately" and "Relaxed" suggest a calm or peaceful demeanor, while "Depressed" suggests a sad or low-spirited demeanor.
