Explanation:
Comparison of adjectives differs between regular and irregular adjectives. Compaison of irregular adjectives, such as the case here, needs to be memorised:
much and many have the same degrees of comparison; comparative is MORE and superlative is THE MOST.
Levels of comparison for adjective good are BETTER and THE BEST.
Levels of comparison of adjective bad are WORSE and THE WORST.
Note that the superlative form is written with THE.
So, the answers would be:
6. The city wants to create more parks than it currently has.
7. The newest proposal has gotten the most support of all.
8. Of the four plans, it has the best chance of being approved.
9. The old parks are in worse condition than they were last year.
10. The new plan provides more money than before to help maintain them.
The correct answer would be option D:"To show the narrator making the connection that he and his mother are abandoned like the thief's family", this is because the author says that he "saw myself and my mother", which means that he feels identified to the situation that the thief's mother and sister lived (being abandoned), enough so that he had a "deja vu" when living the experience for himself.
Option A is not correct because in no part of the excerpt does the author say that he has other family that is not his mother. Option B is not correct because there is only one narrator, not two. Option C is not correct because it never says that the town is deserted.
