Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. as friendly as.
- There is a grammatical error in the underlined part of the sentence.
- Here in the sentence, instead of 'so friendly like', we should use 'as friendly as'.
- So is a degree verb that is used to modify adjectives and other adverbs. Hence is used to indicate 'a great extent.'
- To connect a result with a cause, we use the connector 'as'.
Thus, the correct sentence is:
He’s not as friendly as she is.
