Let's solve the worksheet step by step and explain each part.

1. Complete the table with the superlative form of the adjectives.



We need to convert regular adjectives into their superlative forms.

| Adjective | Superlative |
|-------------|--------------------|
| Light | lightest |
| Big | biggest |
| Tall | tallest |
| Beautiful | most beautiful |
| Good | best |
| Hot | hottest |
| Happy | happiest |
| Expensive | most expensive |

#### Explanation:
- For one-syllable adjectives (e.g., *light*, *big*, *tall*, *hot*): add -est.
- Example: *light → lightest*
- For two-syllable adjectives ending in -y, change -y to -iest.
- Example: *happy → happiest*
- For two-syllable adjectives that don't end in -y, or for longer adjectives, use "most" + adjective.
- Example: *beautiful → most beautiful*, *expensive → most expensive*
- Special cases:
- *Good* → best (irregular)
- *Happy* → happiest (ends in -y, so -iest)

2. Write the superlative form of the adjectives in brackets.



We are given a sentence and an adjective in parentheses. We must use the correct superlative form.

1. February is ____________ month of the year. (short)
→ February is the shortest month of the year.
"Short" → shortest (one syllable, add -est)

2. Elephants are ____________ land animal. (heavy)
→ Elephants are the heaviest land animal.
"Heavy" → heaviest (one syllable, add -est)

3. I think science is ____________ subject. (interesting)
→ I think science is the most interesting subject.
"Interesting" has more than two syllables → use most interesting

4. Alex is ____________ singer in our school. (good)
→ Alex is the best singer in our school.
"Good" → best (irregular superlative)

---

3. Choose the correct Superlative.



Now we have sentences with blanks — choose the correct superlative form.

1. The cheetah is ____________ animal in the world.
→ The cheetah is the fastest animal in the world.
"Fast" → fastest (one syllable, add -est)

2. He's ____________ man I know.
→ He's the kindest man I know.
"Kind" → kindest (one syllable, add -est)
*(Note: This is a common expression; you could also say "the best", but "kindest" fits better contextually unless specified.)*

3. December is ____________ month of the year in my country.
→ December is the coldest month of the year in my country.
"Cold" → coldest (one syllable, add -est)
*(Or possibly "hottest" depending on climate, but since it’s about "in my country", we assume cold weather. "Coldest" is standard here.)*
