Question
Direction: Choose the correct option from the following: Sean is ________ than he was last week.
well
better
the best
Hint:
An adjective describes a noun. Regular adjectives in the comparative form are added with ‘-er’ or ‘more’. In the superlative form, they are added with ‘-est’ or ‘most’. For example, happy(regular) becomes happier(comparative) or happiest(superlative). Irregular adjectives do not follow this pattern. Instead, the regular adjective becomes a different word in its comparative and superlative form. For example, good(regular) becomes better(comparative) or best(superlative).
The correct answer is: better
The correct answer is option 'b'. Sean is betterthan he was last week. Comparative adjectives are used to show comparisons. When one person/place/thing is compared to another, ‘than’ is used. In the given sentence, Sean's health now is being compared to how it was last week. 'well' is a regular adjective and 'best' is the superlative form. Therefore, options 'a' and 'c' are wrong.
