QUESTION 61
Her health is __________ better now.
  • D many
  • C very
  • A much
  • B more
Answer: 'Much' is used to modify and intensify comparative adjectives (like 'better'). We say 'much better', not 'very better' or 'more better'.
QUESTION 62
There were __________ people at the concert than expected.
  • D least
  • B less
  • A fewer
  • C little
Answer: 'People' is a countable noun. Therefore, the comparative 'fewer' should be used. 'Less' is used for uncountable nouns.
QUESTION 63

  • A farther
  • D farthest
  • B further
  • C furthest
Answer: 'Farthest' is the superlative form of 'far' and refers to the greatest physical distance. The sentence compares the house to all others on the street.
QUESTION 64

  • D small wooden round
  • B wooden round small
  • C round small wooden

Answer: The correct order for these adjectives is Size ('small'), Shape ('round'), and then Material ('wooden').
QUESTION 65
The rose smells __________.
  • B sweetly
  • D sweeter
  • A sweet
  • C sweetness
Answer: 'Smells' is used as a linking verb here, describing the quality of the rose. It should be followed by an adjective ('sweet'), not an adverb ('sweetly').
QUESTION 66
This coffee is more __________ than that one.
  • B bitterer
  • D most bitter
  • C bitterest
  • A bitter
Answer: The word 'more' is already used to form the comparative, so the base form of the adjective 'bitter' is required. 'More bitterer' would be a double comparative.
QUESTION 67
I have __________ hope of winning the lottery.
  • C little
  • D a little
  • B a few
  • A few
Answer: 'Hope' is an uncountable noun. 'Little' means 'almost no' or 'not much', which fits the context of winning a lottery. 'A little' would imply some hope.
QUESTION 68

QUESTION 69
He is the __________ of the two brothers.
  • D intelligenter
