Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. will face the worse job depression.
The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.
"Worse" is a comparative adjective and is used when directly comparing two things.
The superlative degree worst should be used which is used to describe something that is most not up to the mark.
Also, "the" is used before the superlative adjectives.
The correct sentence will be: Economists have declared that 2020 graduates will face the worst job depression since the Great Depression because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
