Question

Which choice is an example of an incorrect or illogical comparison?

A.
My sister has had more summer jobs than anyone in our family.

B.
Katie insists that an office job would be less interesting than an outdoor job.

C.
Adults without a high school diploma might have a more difficult time finding an office job than other adults.

D.
Uncle Pete likes his new job more than his old job.

Answer 1

The correct answer should be Katie insists that an office job would be less interesting than an outdoor job.

That is because this is an opinion of hers as someone might find it more interesting to work in an office, therefore insisting that it is the general truth is wrong.

Answer 2

I think A. is an illogical comparison. This is because you use more and than when comparing only two things.I think the best way to put it is ,"My sister has had the most summer jobs in the family." Hope this helps and sorry if I am wrong.
