Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.
Mahabaleshwar is cool than Panchgani.
- Ais cooler than
- Bis coolest than
- Cis cold than
- Dis cooler then
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The sentence compares two places: Mahabaleshwar and Panchgani. When comparing two entities, the comparative degree of the adjective must be used along with the conjunction 'than'.
The comparative form of 'cool' is 'cooler'.
The correct structure is "cooler than". Option D incorrectly uses 'then' instead of 'than'.
Therefore, "is cooler than" is the correct substitution.
