Question

The squirrel is (1)as large as the mountain. (2)as small as the mountain. (3)not as large as the mountain. (4)not as small as the mountain

Answer 1

Answer:

as small as the mountain

Answer 2

Answer:

Correct option is -

3. Not as large as mountain

Explanation:

Squirrel is a small animal. It cannot be compared to the size of mountains. Calling is as large as mountain would be wrong because they are very small. Therefore, we cannot compare Squirrel with the mountain.

In first two options it is compared to mountain (as large as mountain, as small as mountain). Fourth option is also not correct because it means that Squirrels are not as small as mountain (i.e., squirrels are large) which is wrong.

Only correct option is third one.
