Comparative Adjective Part 3 writing Exercise

Master advanced comparative structures expressing equality, inequality, and emphasis using 'as...as', 'less...than', and other nuanced patterns.

Exercise Guide

How to complete:

Arrange the words to form sentences using as...as, less...than, or other comparison patterns. Notice how word choice changes meaning and emphasis.

Success tips:

  • as + adjective + as → equality: “She is as tall as her brother.”
  • not as/so + adjective + as → inequality: “This exam is not as hard as the last one.”
  • less + adjective + than → weaker comparison: “less expensive than”.
  • Use twice / three times + as + adjective + as to show degree: “twice as big as”.

Knowledge:

Comparative structures are not only about “bigger” or “smaller”. English uses equality and inequality patterns such as “as...as”, “less...than”, and “twice as...as” to express balanced or nuanced comparisons.
