Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:

In the second half, the team played ______ and the game ended in a draw.

• A. earliest
• B. the worst
• C. interesting
• D. the most interesting
• E. worse

Answer 1

The correct option is E 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 some exceptions to this rule.

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

Hence option E is correct.
