Grandpa found he could doze _______ outside in the hammock than he could indoors since Grandma was cleaning the house.

Which word or phrase best completes the sentence above?

a. lazilier
b. most lazily
c. more lazily
d. laziliest

The correct answer here is c. more lazily.
Why? Because a. lazilier and d. laziliest are grammatically incorrect words, therefore not correct. B. most lazy is grammatically correct but it does not fit here because the sentence compares two things (so you need a comparative "more"), while the superlative "most" requires at least three things to be compared.

The correct word to complete the sentence is 'more lazily'. This is because we are comparing two scenarios, making a comparative form necessary. The other options are either incorrect or not suitable for the context.
