Q1
This year's smartphone model features a battery that lasts far ＿＿ than the previous generation.
【中譯】今年的智慧型手機機型電池續航力遠比上一代__。
far + 比較級 + than 結構，單音節形容詞比較級直接加 -er，far 用以加強語氣 → far longer than
more longer 為雙重比較級錯誤，單音節形容詞不可用 more
比較級解題：① than 出現時形容詞須用比較級 ② 單音節形容詞（如 long）比較級直接加 -er，不可加 more ③ far/much 可置於比較級前加強語氣
| 單字/片語 | 詞性 | 音標 | 主要意思 | 搭配用法 |
|---|
| long | adj (原級) | /lɒŋ/ | 長的（原級） | far long than（原級不可接 than，須用比較級） |
| longer | adj (比較級) | /ˈlɒŋɡər/ | 更長的（比較級） | far longer than ✓（比較級＋than 之正確結構，far 加強語氣） |
| more longer | adj (雙重比較級誤用) | /mɔːr ˈlɒŋɡər/ | （雙重比較級，文法錯誤） | long 為單音節字，比較級應直接加 -er，不可再加 more |
| most long | adj (最高級誤用) | /moʊst lɒŋ/ | 最長的（最高級誤用） | most long than（最高級不與 than 並用，且 long 最高級應為 longest） |
