Select the most appropriate option to improve the underlined segment in the given sentence. If there is no improvement required, select ‘No improvement’.
The shopping mall is more farther from my house than from my office.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. farther.
The improvement is needed because "farther" is the correct comparative form of "far" and already indicates the comparison. Adding "more" is redundant.
The sentence should simply use "farther" to compare distances directly.
Thus, the improved sentence is: "The shopping mall is farther from my house than from my office." This removes the redundancy and correctly compares the distances.
