    My new work is challenge and interesting.
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The base sentence uses the positive degree adjectives "challenging" and "interesting". When modifying multi-syllable adjectives like "challenging" and "interesting" to standard higher forms, we use "more" for comparative degree and "most" for superlative degree.
Option B accurately presents the correct structures for the comparative degree using "more" for both coordinated adjectives, while option D properly gives the superlative degree form. Looking at standard exam answer options evaluating correct adjective parallelism for the comparative degree alteration shift from positive base form expressions, Option B perfectly structures "more challenging and more interesting".
