Correct Answer: was more beautiful


Solution : The first option is correct.

Explanation: When using comparative adjectives, the correct structure is to use more before the adjective. In this case, beautiful is already a comparative adjective.

So, the correct sentence would be: "The dance performance was more beautiful than I expected."
