You are learning comparatives: you will read the scene it happens in, take apart the pattern behind them (adjective + -er / more + adjective + than), hear them in a conversation, rehearse them, and finish by saying one thing out loud to be graded.
Comparing two restaurants side by side. One is fancier, the other is cheaper. One has better service, the other has bigger portions. Comparatives are how you make decisions.
My friend took me to Peter Luger Steak House in Williamsburg last week. I went to a steakhouse in Midtown the week before. Now I can compare.
Peter Luger is much older — it's been there since 1887. The Midtown place was newer and fancier. But Peter Luger was way more impressive.
The steak at Peter Luger was bigger and more flavorful. The meat was thicker, cooked over a broiler, and served sizzling on a plate. The Midtown steak was good, but slightly smaller and a little less juicy.
Peter Luger was much more crowded — you need a reservation weeks in advance. The Midtown place was quieter and easier to get into.
Price? Peter Luger was more expensive — about $60 per person. The Midtown place was a little cheaper. But Peter Luger was way more worth it. Sometimes you pay more and get much more in return.
