pouvez vous m'aider svp ​

Bonjour,

1. Lincoln had many setbacks, but he finally reached the highest office in the land.

high ( adjectif court ) ==> the +adj-est

2. Despite his childhood difficulties, Einstein became the most famous scientist the world has ever known.

famous ( adjectif long ) ==> the most + adjectif

3. Silicon Valley is the world’s biggest concentration of start-ups and high-tech firms.

4. If you’re looking for the least expensive products, you should go to a low-cost supermarket.

Attention piège : l’adjectif « expensive » est un adjectif long. Son superlatif est donc  : the most + adjectif (the most espensive = les plus chers )

Mais la phrase deviendrais «  If you’re looking for the least expensive products, you should go to a low-cost supermarket. » : ce qui est incorrect au niveau du sens : «  Si vous recherchez les produits les plus chers, vous devriez aller dans un supermarché à bas prix ( low cost ) » ...

==> Il faut donc utiliser the least expensive ( = les moins chers )

5. The country which is the furthest / farthest away from England is New Zealand.

far ( adjectif irrégulier )==> farthest / furthest

Si l’on parle d’une distance géographique ( ce qui est le cas ici, il s’agit de la distance géographique entre l’Angleterre et la Nouvelle Zélande ) on peut utiliser farthest ou furthest.

                           -----------------------

1. She was jobless, poor single mother  and yet  she is now the richest and most popular author of children’s book.

2. Despite being originally made with a glue which wasn’t sticky enough, today it is one of the world’s most useful office products.

==> the Post-it

3. He was fired from a newspaper for lacking imagination  nevertheless he  became one of the world’s best-known cartoon and film producers.
