Question

Choose the correct alternative which will improve the part of the sentence given in quotes.
Some children are much more 'aggressive then' others.

A.

Aggressively than

B.

Aggressive than

C.

Aggressively then

D.

No improvement

Correct option is B

The correct substitution of the quoted words is "aggressive than".
Explanation: The comparison between the levels of aggression among children should use the comparative "than" rather than "then" which is a temporal conjunction. The adjective "aggressive" should remain unchanged as it correctly describes the quality being compared.
Grammatical rule used: Comparatives are typically followed by "than" when making comparisons.
Example: He is more intelligent than his brother.
