答案只能选 completely。根据剑桥语法(CGEL),英语中某些程度副词对所修饰的动词或动词词组有严格的限制。CGEL给出的相关例子有:

正:I completely forgot.

误:I thoroughly forgot.

正:I badly needed it.

误:I utterly needed it.

正:I greatly admire her.

误:I perfectly admire her.

正:I deeply dislike them.

误:I deeply like it.

completely 是正确的;还没有找到 thoroughly forget 的例句。如:

I completely forgot you were coming today. 我完全忘了你今天要来。(《牛津英语搭配词典》第2版英汉双解版p.717
