🟢 English Lab | Part 4 Tip – Comparatives
Comparatives are a classic transformation in Part 4. Examiners test if you can rewrite a sentence with a different comparative structure without changing the meaning.
Example:👉 This hotel is cheaper than that one.✅ That hotel is more expensive than this one.
📝 Exam Coaching
- Always keep the meaning identical: “cheaper than” ↔ “more expensive than.”
- Watch for the grammar trap: short adjectives usually take -er + than (smaller than), while longer adjectives use more + adjective + than (more interesting than).
- Examiners love this because one tiny word change can shift the meaning and cost you the mark.
👉 Task: Write your own comparative transformation in the comments ⬇️
Example starters:
- “My city is bigger than yours.”
- “This exercise is more difficult than that one.”
Can you flip them around correctly?
💡 Pro tip: When you finish your transformation, check:
- Did you keep the meaning the same?
- Did you use the right comparative form?
