Comparisons


Try to remember a little of our last class....

Now,  one of the things we did was to review the topic of comparisons, with their different degrees as well as their levels of formality.

We did some practice in class, but just to finish the topic go to your book on page 58 you will find exercises 4a and 5a. 

Review the studied information and complete both exercises. Write your answers as a comment below.
