1. This book is the most interesting I’ve read.
2. Elephants are bigger than rhinos.
3. Of all the animals, the blue whale is bigger.
4. This road is narrow than that one.
Lihat pembahasan
Answer: B. Elephants are bigger than rhinos. Comparative adjectives are used to compare two things and are often formed by adding "-er" to the adjective (or using "more" for longer adjectives). In sentence B, "bigger" is correctly used to compare the size of elephants and rhinos. • A is incorrect because "the most interesting" is a superlative adjective, not comparative. • C is incorrect because "bigger" is used instead of "the biggest," which is the superlative form needed to describe the blue whale as the largest among all animals. • D is incorrect because "narrow" should be "narrower" to correctly compare the two roads.
