Answer 1

The test is easier than we expected it to be.

• We use comparative degree of a verb when comparison between two people, things or places is being made.
• In the sentence above, a comparison between the original test and our expectations is being made, hence comparative degree will be used i.e easier.
• Other options, such as the easiest, is not correct as it is the superlative degree which is used when the best is chosen amongst many options.
