Let's go through each sentence and fill in the gaps with the correct form of the adjectives in brackets.

1) Henry's job is more interesting than Jack's.

• Explanation: The comparative form of the adjective "interesting" is "more interesting," as it is a multi-syllable adjective.

2) A: Thanks for your help with my CV, Angie. B: It's the least I can do.

• Explanation: For "little," the superlative form is "the least," indicating the minimum effort or help given.

3) It's getting harder and harder for young people to get their first job.

• Explanation: The phrase "harder and harder" is used to indicate that something is becoming increasingly difficult over time.

4) Which job is the most tiring, a shop assistant, a waiter, or a delivery person?

• Explanation: "Tiring" is a multi-syllable adjective, so its superlative form is "the most tiring."

5) My student days were some of the happiest of my life!

• Explanation: When forming the superlative of a two-syllable adjective ending in -y, you change the -y to -i and add -est, making "happy" into "the happiest."

6) The more you prepare for an interview, the better you'll do.

• Explanation: This sentence uses the comparative form in a correlative structure. "More" is the comparative form of "much," and "better" is the comparative form of "good."

7) It's easier to get a good job if you prepare well beforehand.

• Explanation: The comparative form of the adjective "easy" is "easier," formed by adding -er.

These sentences illustrate the use of comparative and superlative forms of adjectives, which are key to expressing differences and extremes in English.
