1. The correct answer is A. further. To determine the correct answer, you need to understand the difference between "farther" and "further." "Farther" refers to physical distance, while "further" refers to metaphorical or figurative distance. Since Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin went physically farther than anyone before by landing on the moon, the correct answer is "further."
2. The grammatically incorrect sentence is: "I hate flying, but I will made an exception if I ever get the opportunity to travel to Antarctica because it's my dream vacation spots." The correct version should be: "I hate flying, but I will make an exception if I ever get the opportunity to travel to Antarctica because it's my dream vacation spot."
3. The sentence that contains a grammatical error is: "Violent video games like Grand Theft Auto are a perpetual sources of controversy." The correct version would be: "Violent video games like Grand Theft Auto are a perpetual source of controversy." The error is the use of "sources," which should be "source" since the subject is singular.
4. The correct answer is D. "Both A and B." In this sentence, the comparative form "than" is needed to compare the difference between how she looked and what he expected, so the correct answer is "than." However, the use of "from" can also be acceptable in some cases, so both options A and B can be considered correct.
1. Correct, nowadays (although, to me, ‘farther’ is the only correct one when referring to physical distance)
2. I agree.
3. I find errors in A and B. Were there any typos?
4. I disagree.
