Correct option is A
Option
(a) more contains an error.
Detailed explanation: “better” is already the
comparative form of “good.” Using “more better” creates a
double comparative, which is grammatically incorrect. The correct sentence is:
“This book is better than that one.”
Grammatical rule used: Use
only one comparative marker. Short adjectives typically take
-er (e.g., taller), longer adjectives use
more (e.g., more beautiful). Irregular forms like
good → better,
bad → worse never take “more/most” with their comparative/superlative.
Example:
· Incorrect: She is more taller than him.
· Correct: She is taller than him.
·
Information booster / exceptions: Avoid pleonastic comparatives such as more superior, more preferable, most unique. Words like
unique, perfect, complete are
absolute and generally don’t take comparatives/superlatives.
