Lighter metals meant that even the weakest horses could carry armored knights. What is the degree of the adjective weakest in the sentence? positive superlative comparative

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The degree of the adjective weakest in the sentence would be superlative. In the sentence 'Lighter metals meant that even the weakest horses could carry armored knights.', superlative is the degree of the adjective 'weakest'.
Answer 2
Answer:

B. Superlative

Degrees of comparison can be positive, comparative, or superlative.  Note that degrees of comparison are all adjectives.   Positives describe only one noun.  Comparatives compare only two nouns.  And, superlatives will compare three or more nouns.  The degrees of comparison (from positive to superlative) for the word qualified are qualified, more qualified, and most qualified.   Because it is quite obvious that there are more than just two horses being referenced here, "weakest" is a superlative.

You are waiting for you friend at bus stop describe the place

Answers

i am currently waiting for my friend at a bus stop. the bus stop is a relatively small and simple structure located on the side of the road.

the bus stop itself consists of a modest shelter with a slanted roof to protect passengers. the shelter is made of metal and glass panels, providing some shade from the sun and shelter from rain if needed. the metal framework is painted in a simple, neutral color, and the glass panels are transparent, allowing me to see the surroundings.

under the shelter, there are a few benches for people to sit while they wait. theyre made of a hard plastic material, probably in a shade of dark blue or green, and have seen their fair share of use over time.

the ground beneath the bus stop is a simple concrete slab, marked with the wear and tear of countless footsteps. theres a small, weathered trash bin nearby, reminding passengers to dispose of their litter responsibly.

above, a streetlamp provides illumination for nighttime travelers, although its currently turned off in the daylight.

Answers

1. I believe the answer is novel because for the other answer choices, you're able to advertise on there.
2. C because of course, advertisers would want to choose a place that is noticeable so that their ad gets seen.
3. I believe D, a documentary. Normally in documentaries, they're based on factual information.
4. D because you're able to find advertisements in all of the choices.
5. I'm unsure on this one. It's definitely not D though because it doesn't make sense. I would say the best choice is A.
6. I believe the answer is D. For example, the news are able to communicate a lot of information (such as CNN). 
7. The best answer is D because if another person, especially one who's famous, advertises the product, that'll help the advertiser(s)' product become more well known and possibly have a higher demand for it.
