    Question

    The given sentence contains an error. Select the option that correctly rectifies the error.

    She runs more faster than her sister in the

    race.
    A She runs most faster than her sister in the race Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B She runs faster than her sister in the race Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C She runs fastest than her sister in the race. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D She runs more faster than her sister in the race. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The word "faster" is already the comparative form of "fast," so using "more" with "faster" is redundant and incorrect. The correct comparative form is "faster," making the sentence "She runs faster than her sister in the race" the correct option. Options 1 and 4 incorrectly use redundant comparatives, and option 3 incorrectly uses the superlative "fastest" instead of the comparative form.
