Looking in the Mirror.
He got up and tried to see himself in the dirty looking glass over the wash-stand. He saw the head and face of a young fellow of twenty. Above a square-domed forehead he saw a mop of brown hair, nut-brown, with a wave to it and hints of curls, making hands tingle to stroke it. But he passed it by, and dwelt long and thoughtfully on the high square forehead. What kind of brain lay behind it?
He wondered if there was soul in those steel-gray eyes that were often quite blue of colour and that were strong with the salty air of the sea. Well, they were honest eyes, he concluded. The brown sunburn of his face surprised him.
His mouth might have been an angel's mouth, had not the full, sensuous lips a habit of drawing firmly across the teeth. At times so tightly did they draw, the mouth became stern and harsh. The chin and jaw were strong and just hinting of square aggressiveness. And between the lips were teeth that were white and strong and regular.

Grammar: The Comparison of Adjectives.
Common comparative and superlative forms:
We use the comparative when comparing one person or thing with another.
We use the superlative when comparing one person or thing with more than one.
Adjectives |
Comparative |
Superlative | |||
One-syllable and some two-syllable words ending in –y, -er, -ow,-le |
Hot Large Narrow Simple |
… + - er hotter larger narrower simpler |
… + - est hottest largest narrowest simplest | ||
Two or more syllable words |
Beautiful Interesting |
More + … |
Most + … | ||
More beautiful More interesting |
Most beautiful Most interesting | ||||
Irregular forms |
Good Bad Old
Far |
Better Worse Older Elder Farther Further |
The best The worst The oldest The eldest The farthest The furthest |
NOTE:
Some two syllable adjectives like happy (clever, common, narrow, pleasant, quiet, simple, stupid) have two comparative or superlative forms:
-either with – er / est:
She is cleverer than you. She is the cleverest person I know.
- or with more / the most
She is more clever than you. She is the most clever person I know
Comparative and superlative forms often confused:
Further and farther refer to distance:
London is five miles further/farther.
Further (not farther) can mean “in addition”:
There is no further information.
We use elder/eldest before a noun only with reference to people in a family:
my elder brother/son, the eldest child, he is the eldest
(but not: He is elder than me)
We use older/oldest for people and things:
He is older than I am. This book is older.
Lesser is formed from less but it is a true comparative. We can not use than after it. Lesser
means not so great and we use it in fixed phrases like: the lesser of two evils.
Latest/last:
I bought the latest (i.e. most recent) edition of today’s paper.
I bought the last (i.e. final) edition of today’s paper.
The comparative and superlative of little is smaller/smallest:
a small/little boy, a smaller/the smallest boy.
Ex. 5. Give the comparative and superlative of the following adjectives:
Polite, happy, glad, complete, honorable, shy, dry, just, free, recent, merry, uncomfortable, hot, accurate, narrow, real, sweet, right, wicked, yellow, cozy, merciful, bad, fat, cheap, stupid, miserable, simple, lazy, old, serious, tiny, beautiful, interesting, considerate, intimate, good, much, dark, expensive, clumsy, significant, sad, bitter, clever, little, dear, far.
Ex. 6. Give both comparative and superlative forms where possible.
1. His brother is talented.
(than he)- His brother is more than he.
(person I have ever met)- His brother is the most talented person I have ever met.
His work was careless.
(than mine)
(in the class)
Basketball is popular.
(than tennis)
(in the USA)
This watch is expensive.
(than that one)
(in the shop)
Tuesday is convenient for me.
(than Friday)
(of all week-days)
Ex. 7. Choose the right forms in these sentences. In some cases both forms are right.
1. Is this station is much (farther/further)? 2. You’ll find the explanation (farther/further) on.
3. Your record is (worse/worst) than mine. 4. It is the (less/lesser) of two evils.
5. She always wears the (last/latest) fashion. 6. We have no (farther/further) information.
7. Nick skates (good/well). 8. His (last/latest) words were: “The end”. 9. She is the (oldest/eldest) member of our family. 10. My flat is (little/smaller) than yours. 11.
