Question

Of the two coats,I'd choose the __________ one to spare some money for a book.
A.cheapest B.cheaper C.more expensive D.most expensive
How to choose,translate and why?Thanks.

Answer 1

应该选择B
按句意理解,题目是“这两件外衣,我得选一件____的,才能留出买书的钱.”
四个答案表示的是贵和贱,很显然得选择表示“便宜的”,因此排除C和D（分别是“更贵的”和“最贵的”）.
而英语的最高级要用于三者或三者以上得比较中,两者的比较应用比较级,因此应选B,cheaper,“更便宜的”
