Question

My house is__________ as yours.
A. big
B. as big
C. Bigger
D. biggest

Answer 1

Hint: An adjective is a term in linguistics that modifies a noun or noun phrase or defines its relation. Its semantic purpose is to modify knowledge provided by the noun. Adjectives are one of the key parts of English language speech, although they have traditionally been categorised along with nouns.

Complete answer:
It is necessary to fill the given sentence with the most appropriate adjective. Looking at 'as yours,' we can understand that the expression is about a distinction between the size of houses and the degree that is positive.
 'As' here notes equality, which suggests that both houses are of the same size. We may therefore say,' as large as'. The correct choice is therefore B -' my house is as big as yours.'
 Option A is incorrect as we need 'as big as' to demonstrate the comparison.
As 'bigger' is the comparative adjective, Choice C is wrong, while 'as big as' is used here to demonstrate the contrast. 'Bigger' can be used if someone has a bigger house than anyone.
Option D is wrong, as the superlative adjective is 'biggest.' 'Biggest as' also doesn't make sense, either.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’

Note: Adjectives have three degrees that compare one thing to another. The three degrees of adjectives are positive, comparative and superlative. The comparative and superlative degrees are used to compare between two or more subjects or objects.
