Letra C
She is the kindest person.
comparativo você compara uma coisa com outra ! a E não compara nada
The correct answer is C) She is the kindest person.
Here's why:
- Adjective Type: The adjective is "kind." This is a short, one-syllable adjective.
- Comparison: The sentence structure "She is..." suggests you are comparing one person against everyone else in a relevant group (like her friends, family, or the world). This requires the superlative degree.
- Grammar Rules:
- Short adjectives form the superlative by adding the suffix -est and putting the article the before it: kind -> the kindest.
- Long adjectives (with two or more syllables) form the superlative using the most: beautiful -> the most beautiful.
- Irregular adjectives have unique forms: good -> the best.
Since "kind" is a short adjective, C is correct.
- A) She is the more kind person. Incorrect. We don't use "more" for a superlative comparison of a short adjective. This is also grammatically clunky and mixes comparative structure with superlative intent.
- B) She is the most kind person. Incorrect. We use most for long adjectives (e.g., the most intelligent), not short ones like "kind."
- D) She is the more kinder person. Incorrect. This is a "double comparative." You cannot use both "more" and "-er" at the same time. Also, the intent is superlative, not comparative.
- E) She is kinder person. Incorrect. This is the comparative form (kinder), but it is missing the essential components for a grammatically complete comparative sentence: a comparison point using "than" (e.g., She is kinder than Sarah).
