Question 3 • Honors English III

Read the sentence. Bailey is far superior to other dogs of his breed; he learns tricks faster and easier than any other dog I have ever owned. Which word best contributes to the positive tone of this sentence?

Answer
A
superior
B
breed
C
faster
D
easier

Explanation

“Superior” means better than others, so it directly expresses praise and creates a positive tone. “Breed” is neutral, while “faster” and “easier” describe how Bailey learns without praising him as strongly.
