Answer 1

The correct option is C worse

Option A is incorrect.'good' is an adjective in the positive degree and not the comparative degree. Thus, it cannot be used to compare two things.

Option B is incorrect. 'worst' is an adjective in the superlative degree and not the comparative degree. Thus, it cannot be used to compare two things.

Option C is correct. 'worse' is an adjective in the comparative degree. Thus, it meets the required conditions and is the correct answer.

Option D is incorrect. 'well' is an adjective in the positive degree and not the comparative degree. Thus, it cannot be used to compare two things.
