The superlative form of an adjective should only be used when comparing
expeople1 [14]
A superlative compares something to everything else. For example: This book is the best book there is. Here the superlative is "the best" which compares "this book" to all the other books that exist. Of course, you can narrow that and say something like: I'm the tallest person in my class. Now you're only talking about the people in your class and not everyone who exists. But, you're still doing the comparison against all the people/things in the set boundaries.

Because the long preamble, listeners were prepared for the suprising nature of the tale?
devlian [24]

Answer:

Because the preamble introduced important and surprising facts that would be reported in the fable.

Explanation:

A preamble is an introductory text that is written before the book's chapters or before a fable. In fact, the preamble is an introductory text written before a text, be it a novel, a constitution, a song, a short story, or a fable.

The whole preamble aims to introduce the most important points of the text that will be read soon after. Through this introduction, the reader is prepared to learn some of the above facts about what he will read, so the reader is curious and ready to receive this information. Based on this, we can say that through a long, well written and effective preamble, readers can be prepared for the amazing nature of a story.
