Correct Answer: much interesting stories than this.


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

The correct comparative form is m ore , which should be used in place of much to make the sentence grammatically accurate, as it is the comparative degree of much/many . In the given context, interesting is a polysyllabic adjective. Thus, more should be added before it.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: This story is quite interesting, but I have read more interesting stories than this.
