🥊 Comparing People

In this text, we see how to say someone is "more" than another person. This is a key skill for A2 English.

The Pattern: [Person A] + is + [Adjective-er] + than + [Person B]

  • Example: "his son is better than other people."

Simple Rules for You:

  1. For short words, add -er (Fast → Faster).
  2. For special words like "Good," we use Better.

Words from the text to practice:

  • Fast → Faster
  • Good → Better

How it works in the story: David is not just strong; he is stronger than the other boxers. This is why he can win fights → he has more power.
