Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Degrees of Adjectives - ESL worksheet by mariaasbcj
The image is a worksheet titled "Degrees of Adjectives - Practise", designed to help students practice forming comparative adjectives in two categories:

1. Comparative of Superiority (comparing one thing as more than another)
2. Comparative of Equality (comparing two things as equal)

Let’s go through each section and solve the problems step by step.

---

🔹 A. Comparative of Superiority


This section uses "more... than" or "-er than" for comparison, depending on the adjective.

> Rules:
> - For short adjectives (1-2 syllables): add -er (e.g., *taller*, *faster*)
> - For longer adjectives (3+ syllables): use more... than (e.g., *more difficult than*)
> - Irregular forms: *good → better*, *bad → worse*, *far → farther/further*

Now let's fill in the blanks:

1. Let's go somewhere quieter than this place.
→ "quiet" → comparative = quieter

2. The Amazon river is longer than the Seine.
→ "long" → comparative = longer

3. A Ferrari is more expensive than a Ford.
→ "expensive" (3 syllables) → more expensive

4. Tropical climates are hotter than the arctic ones.
→ "hot" → comparative = hotter

5. Do you think English is more difficult than Russian?
→ "difficult" (3 syllables) → more difficult

6. In Spring it is rainier than in Summer.
→ "rainy" → comparative = rainier

7. Jill is older than Gary.
→ "old" → comparative = older

8. Jack's mother is younger than Joan's mother.
→ "young" → comparative = younger

9. Yesterday the weather was colder than today.
→ "cold" → comparative = colder

10. Jane plays tennis better than me.
→ "good" → irregular comparative = better

11. I'm worse than you in Maths.
→ "bad" → irregular comparative = worse

12. My brother can run faster than me.
→ "fast" → comparative = faster

---

🔹 B. Comparative of Equality


This section uses "as... as" structure to show equality.

> Rule: Use as + adjective + as
> Example: She is as tall as her sister.

Now let's complete these:

1. Jonathan is as clever as Bill.
→ "clever" → as clever as

2. The film was as interesting as the book.
→ "interesting" → as interesting as

3. Planes are as dangerous as cars.
→ "dangerous" → as dangerous as

4. Paul is as careful as his wife.
→ "careful" → as careful as

5. Today's test was as difficult as yesterday's test.
→ "difficult" → as difficult as

6. Your suitcase is as full as mine.
→ "full" → as full as
