Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:

Both of them are skiing very badly, but she is skiing even ______ than he is.

• A. bad
• B. worse
• C. the worst
• D. worst

Answer 1

The correct option is B worse

The Comparative Degree denotes the existence of a higher degree of the quality than the positive. It is used when two things (or two sets of things) are compared.

The format for comparative degree is '<adjective> + er than' or 'more/less <adjective> than'.
There are a few exceptions to this rule, like:

'Bad, worse, worst' are the positive, comparative and superlative forms respectively.

Hence option B is correct and rest are wrong.
