Correct Answer: is cleverest


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The correct form should be " is the cleverest ". When expressing the superlative degree, we need to use the definite article " the " before the superlative adjective.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "This boy is the cleverest of all in the class."
