Question

Change into comparative degree. Rajiv is the tallest boy in the class.

• A. Rajiv is taller than all the other boys in the class
• B. Rajiv is taller than many boys in the class
• C. Rajiv is taller than no other boy in the class.
• D. Rajiv is taller than most of the boys in the class

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Rajiv is taller than all the other boys in the class

• The original sentence, "Rajiv is the tallest boy in the class," uses the superlative degree ("tallest") to indicate that Rajiv is the most tall among all.

• In the comparative degree, we compare Rajiv with others. The sentence "Rajiv is taller than all the other boys in the class" correctly uses the comparative degree ("taller") to show that Rajiv is taller than the rest, but not necessarily the tallest.
