For the sentence given below, choose the most appropriate answer in its comparative degree from the options provided.
No other State in India is as clean as Kerala.
Answer: B
The comparative form is Kerala is cleaner than any other State in India.
'No other State is as clean as Kerala' uses the positive degree. Its comparative equivalent uses 'cleaner than any other', and its superlative equivalent is 'Kerala is the cleanest State in India'.
The first option is the superlative, not the comparative. 'Kerala is very clean' drops the comparison altogether, and 'All other States are not as clean as Kerala' is still in the positive degree.
