Correct Answer: same book as


Solution : The correct option is the fourth option.

Explanation : The word "like" is not the appropriate preposition to use in this context because "like" is used to show similarity. Instead, when making comparisons, it is more grammatically accurate to use " as" in place of " like" since it is implied that the book plays the substitute role for the one that is recommended by the teacher.

So, the correct sentence would be: Is this the same book as our teacher recommended?
