Select the most appropriate option to substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.
Gourav was no good than a foolish person.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. no better.
"No good" is a phrase that means "not good" or "of no value" when used in a general context (e.g., "He is no good at math").
However, when comparing two things, we use "no better" to express that one thing is not an improvement over another.
Hence, the correct sentence is- Gourav was no better than a foolish person.
