Question 7: Some crimes seem to be __________in this country than in others.
Compare less with long adjectives: to be + less + adj + than
Eg: This book is less expensive than that one.
That book is more expensive than this one.
We can use “much, slightly…” in comparatives for emphasis:
“much/ slightly/…+ comparative form + than”
Eg: His shirt is much more expensive than mine.
=> Answer B (Some crimes in this country seem to be much less common than in other countries.)
