AND “SUPERLATIVES”

FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

3 COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES


Adjectives describe qualities of nouns. Some of these qualities may vary in degree or
intensity. As in Spanish, when we want to make comparisons we contrast qualities or
attributes by means of adjectives in their various degrees.
3.1 GRADES OF ADJECTIVES
Adjectives that can vary in degree or intensity have comparative and superlative forms.
In the next section, there are the rules on how to form these comparative and
superlative forms.
3.1.1 The positive degree
The positive degree of adjectives is the quality in the simplest degree.
Examples:
 Luis runs fast.
Luis corre rápido.
 She’s room is clean.
La habitación de ella está limpia.
 Lima is big.
Lima es grande.
3.1.2 The comparative degree
When making comparisons, we can highlight the superiority, inferiority or equality of
quality from one to another. Th estructure of each of these degrees of comparison is
different.
3.1.2.1 Comparatives of superiority
In superiority comparisons, the adjective, which is in the comparative form, is followed
by "than".
Examples:
 Luis runs faster than Jorge.
Luis corre más rápido que Jorge.
 Diana’s room is cleaner than Carla’s.
La habitación de Diana es más limpia que la de Carla.
 Juan is taller than David.
Juan es más alto que David.
3.1.2.2 Comparatives of inferiority
To form this type of comparison we can use the conjunctions "not as ... as" or "less ...
than". In both cases, the adjective is in the positive degree.
Examples:
 Luis is not as fast as Jorge.
Luis no corre tan rápido como Jorge.

7
FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

 Diana’s room is less clean than Carla’s.


La habitación de Diana no es tan limpia como la de Carla.
 Juan is not as tall as David.
Juan no es tan alto como David.
3.1.2.3 Equality comparatives
With the adjective in the positive degree, we use the conjunction "as ... as" to form
equality comparisons.
 Luis is as fast as Jorge.
Luis corre tan rápido como Jorge.
 Diana’s room is as clean as Carla’s.
La habitación de Diana es tan limpia como la de Carla.
 Juan is as tall as David.
Juan es tan alto como David.
Observation: We can modify a comparison with a quantifier (much, a lot, a little,
slightly ...).
Examples:
 Luis is a lot faster than Jorge.
Luis corre mucho más rápido que Jorge.
 Juan is a little taller than David.
Juan es un poco más alto que David.
3.1.3 The superlative degree
The superlative degree denotes quality in the highest degree and as in Spanish, "the" is
used in front of the adjective in the superlative form
Examples:
 Luis is the fastest.
Luis es el más rápido.
 Diana’s room is the cleanest.
La habitación de Diana es la más limpia.
 Juan is the tallest.
Juan es el más alto.
Observation: If the adjective is possessive, "the" is not used. Also "the" is not used if
we compare something with itself.
Examples:
 His smartest student is Lisa.
Su estudiante más lista es Lisa.
 New York is coldest in January.
New York es más frío en enero.

PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

3.2 FORMATION OF REGULAR COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES


There are some rules to form the comparative and superlative.
3.2.1 For one-syllable adjectives:
Add “-er” for the comparative and “-est” for the superlative. If the adjective ends in
“e”, Add “-er” for the comparative and “-est” for the superlative.

ADJECTIVES COMPARATIVE SUPERLATIVE

Tall Taller Tallest

Fast Faster Fastest

Nice Nicer Nicest

3.2.2 For two-syllables adjectives:


Two-syllable adjectives can form the comparative by adding "-er", like the adjectives of
a syllable, or by placing "more" in front of the adjective, as it happens with those of
three syllables. Likewise, these adjectives can form the superlative by adding the
ending "-est" or by putting "most" in front of the adjective. In many cases, both forms
are used, although one of the uses will be more common than the other. If we are not
sure that an adjective can take the comparative or superlative endings, it is better to
use "more" and "most". When a two-syllable adjective ends in "y", it must be changed
to "i" before adding the ending.

ADJECTIVES COMPARATIVE SUPERLATIVE

Happy Happier Happiest

Busy Busier Busiest

Simple Simpler Simplest

9
FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

3.2.3 For adjectives of three or more syllables:


Adjectives of three or more syllables form the comparative by placing "more" or “less”
before the adjective and the superlative by placing " most" or " least".

ADJECTIVES COMPARATIVE SUPERLATIVE

More beautiful most beautiful


Beautiful
Less beautiful least beautiful
More important most important
Important
Less important least important
More expensive most expensive
Expensive
Less expensive least expensive

Examples:
 My job is more important than yours.
Mi trabajo es más importante que el tuyo.
 The first book is less interesting than the second one.
El primer libro es menos interesante que el segundo.
 That cell phone is the most expensive in the store.
Ese teléfono celular es el más caro en la tienda.
 He is the least intelligent of the class.
Él es el menos inteligente de la clase.
3.2.4 Irregular adjectives:
Some very ordinary adjectives have irregular shapes in the comparative and
superlative degrees.

ADJECTIVE COMPARATIVE SUPERLATIVE

Good Better Best

Bad Worse Worst

Far Further Furthest

FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

4.1 INTRODUCTION
Illegal drug consumption is not an invention of this generation, it has existed for
centuries.
The novelty of our day is the great variety of products that can be obtained and the
growing number of consumers.
For a long time it was thought that drug abuse was related to the poverty of the family
environment. Today we know that anyone can fall into this vice. Drug abuse is not an
easily solved problem, and the mere fact of the large number of products that can be
purchased and the large number of people who consume them, complicates even
more.
The problem of drugs affects Peru in many ways. In effect, starting with the cultivation,
going on to the elaboration of drugs, drug trafficking, microcommercialization and
consumption; the population of the country is exposed to a series of damages to
health, ecology, education, public safety, the economy and many other dimensions
An important aspect in the fight against drugs is to know how much the population is
being affected.
4.2 WHAT ARE DRUGS?
Drug is all the substance that introduces into the organism alters the state of mind,
perception, state of consciousness, mental functions and behavior.
4.3 TYPES OF DRUGS
The drugs are classified according to the effects they cause on the nervous system in:
 Depressants:
Alcohol, tranquilizers and heroin.
 Stimulants:
Cocaine, amphetamines.
 Hallucinogens:
Marijuana, cocaine paste, neoprene.

We can also classify them as legal and illegal:


 Legal:
Alcohol and Tobacco.
 Illegal:
Cocaine, amphetamines, marijuana, cocaine paste, neoprene, LSD, heroin, ecstasy.

The information presented in this report is based on The latest epidemiological study
of the Center for Information and Education for the Prevention of Drug Abuse (CEDRO)

4.3.2.4 ECSTASY
 Ecstasy is a clandestine substance that works by combining the action of other
substances (legal and legal) with known effects.
 It acts as a stimulant of the CNS, generating hallucinatory and invigorating effects
but with many possible side effects.
 In Peru, its consumption is mainly positioned among adolescents and young
people, with a greater presence in the summer season.
 Its effects last between 3 and 6 hours, depending on the dose, the degree of
adulteration and the user's expectations.
 Its use combined with alcoholic beverages can generate death due to strokes and
respiratory arrest.

 Active principle: Methylenedioxymethamphetamine.


 Characteristics: In the consumption scenarios they are known as: "pepas",
"tachas", etc.
 Production: It is produced from the leaves of coca (erythroxylum coca) and
chemical substances used in the extraction of alkaloids. It is known as 'coca',
'white', etc.
 Presentation: MDMA or Ecstasy is a synthetic base derived from phenylethylamine
and structurally related to amphetamine and the hallucinogen mescaline.

4.3.2.5 OPIUM
 Opium is a complex mixture of substances that is extracted from the capsules of
the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum), which contains the narcotic and analgesic
drug called morphine and other alkaloids.
 The opium poppy (Papaver somniferum), like a common poppy, is a plant that can
grow to one and a half meters. Its white, violet or fuchsia flowers stand out.

 Active principle: Morphine, codeine and thebaine.


 Characteristics: It is a narcotic analgesic drug that contains up to 24 alkaloids. The
main one is Morphine. Opium is extracted by making superficial incisions in the
fruits (heads) of the "opium poppy". The cuts exude a milky (white) liquid (latex),
when dried it drifts into a brown sticky resin. By scraping this resin, raw opium is
obtained. By allowing it to dry longer it results in a darker stony hard solid while
losing water and alkaloids are concentrated. The route of administration is oral and
smoked.
 Production: Opium is a natural product that is obtained from a type of poppy
(Papaver Somniferum) that grows in many countries, a plant that can reach from 1
to 1.5 meters in height. In Peru, the poppy grows in all regions, except in the puna.
Poppy plantations have been detected in the high and low Amazon forests in the
Departments of Cajamarca, Amazonas and San Martín.
 Presentation: In solid form as white or brown powder.

4.4 Others studies


 According to the III Andean Epidemiological Study on Drug Use in the University Population
of Peru 2016, conducted by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC),
marijuana use among university students increased from 3.2% (2009) to 5.2%
(2016).
This is a survey of 4,060 students from ten public and private universities in the
country. The same showed that this hallucinogen is still the illegal drug most
consumed by Peruvian students.
Juan Araneda Ferrer, coordinator of the Support Project for the Demand Reduction
of Illicit Drugs in the Andean Community (Predem), the entity that carried out the
field study, said that young people under the age of 22 think that the consumption
of this drug drug does not cause major problems.
"Today, young people, who consume the most and who are most offered
marijuana, think that cannabis is more harmless than cocaine, alcohol and tobacco.
There is a series of messages on social networks that encourage them to consume,
"Araneda warned.
He noted that, therefore, 55% of university students do not perceive the
experimental use of this substance as a risk and that close to 20% do not perceive
their frequent use as a risk. "To this we must add that 31% of students say it is easy
to get it," he said.
This study also concluded that cocaine is no longer the second most used illegal
drug by university students in our country. Now so are the so-called inhalants such
as benzine, paraffin, acetone and industrial glues.
In this regard, Carmen Masías, executive president of the Board of Directors of the
National Commission for Development and Life without Drugs (Devida), indicated
that these substances - causing serious damage to the brain and lungs - are
consumed by 0.41% of the students.

27
FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

"We have been struck by the fact that it is university women who consume these
substances the most. They use acetone and nail polish.
Ten years ago we saw that inhalants were linked to the so-called 'pirañitas', but
today this has changed, "he said. In this regard, Milton Rojas, specialist of CEDRO,
indicated that at the world level a process of "feminization" is taking place in the
consumption of drugs. "Now it is not so marginal to see women consumers," he
said.
He added that it is "extremely worrying" to see young university students use
inhalants to get high. "It is not being given due importance. You have to rethink
things, "he added.
 More and more Peruvians are starting to use drugs at a younger age (on average at
age 13), reported the National Commission for Development and Life Without
Drugs (Devida). In addition, it is estimated that 200 thousand schoolchildren have
problems with alcohol and 47 thousand consume marijuana.
"Basic cocaine paste registers a high risk tendency, because it is one of the most
addictive drugs, easily accessible, and that in a few days it generates dependence,
more in minors, since its brain is in development. There are studies that indicate
that 20 thousand students consume cocaine and PBC, "said Eduardo Cruz, a
psychologist at this institution.

4.6 DRUG PREVENTION


Drug prevention programs are designed to provide the education and support
necessary to diminish drug dependency in communities, schools and the workplace.
Drug abuse prevention has become an important first step in informing specific
individuals about the dangers of addiction, prevention techniques and where to find
recovery help if it should be deemed necessary.
The consumption of drugs, in addition to being able to generate an addiction, can lead
to health problems, family, social, educational, etc; both in people with dependence
on drugs and those who consume without having an addiction.
Although we are far from knowing exactly why some people take drugs and others do
not, we currently have information on some of the factors that make it easier for a
person to develop problems related to drug use.
That is, there is no concrete cause to explain it. But several circumstances may occur
that favor or avoid this process:
4.6.1 Risk factors
The elements that increase the likelihood of a person abusing drugs are known as risk
factors.
Social factors: like the fact of living in a very disadvantaged environment
Family factors: such as lack of ties with the family or that parents have favorable
attitudes toward drug use
School factors: for example, experiencing school failure
Individual or interpersonal factors: how to present behavior problems early and
persistently.
4.6.2 Protection factors
Also, some protection factors are known that act in inverse way to the previous ones,
reducing the probability that a person takes drugs or presents problems for this cause.
Some protection factors are:
 The ability to think critically,
 The fact of having a good adaptation in school,
 Have skills to communicate and relate to others, or have developed positive
emotional bonds between parents and children.
Preventing the use of drugs (and drug dependencies) involves reducing risk factors and
enhancing protective factors. This does not guarantee at all that a person never comes
to take drugs, but it will make it less likely.
4.7 Programs for Drug Prevention
Drug abuse prevention begins with education, spreading the word regarding the dangers of
drugs to oneself and to the community. These programs are just the beginning. The
information provided is most effective when it is followed up with continued support. Drug

30
FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

prevention programs seek to involve the family, community or workplace in the prevention
process. To be effective, communities need to sustain the progress. This often requires
continued leadership and financial support.
As previously mentioned, drug prevention begins with education. This education can take
place at a number of levels including:
4.7.1 Family Based Drug Prevention
The prevention of drug abuse should start inside the family unit as early as possible. There are
many obvious benefits of home based drug prevention education including self-awareness,
and the enhancement of parent-child communication skills and family bonding. Parental
supervision and involvement are critical in adolescents. Parents must not only have a plan to
educate their children on the dangers of drug use and abuse, but they must also establish and
enforce family rules. This includes creating an effective system of monitoring their children's
activities.
4.7.2 School Based Drug Abuse Prevention Programs
Drug abuse prevention should be addressed as early as preschool. Preschool children can
benefit from learning how to handle aggression, solve problems, and communicate better so
that they can avoid putting themselves at risk for drug abuse later in life. Middle and high
school programs should focus on peer relationships, communication, assertiveness, drug
resistance skills and developing anti-drug attitudes. School based prevention programs should
be repeated often for the best level of success.
4.7.3 Community Based Drug Abuse Prevention Programs
Communities that make an effort to come together in the fight against drugs are sure to make
an impact in the prevention of drug abuse. There are many places to establish these
prevention programs including schools, churches and community based clubs.
4.8 Important Facts
Drug abuse has a pervasive effect on an entire community. Understanding drug use
risk factors and spreading the word through prevention programs is the best defense
against drug abuse.
 Parental monitoring has been the most effective way to slow the expansion of
drugs in family situations.
 School drug prevention programs serve a valuable purpose in first time users aged
12-17.
 Schools with strict compliance rules and counseling support have been successful
at reducing usage.
 Programs should make sure to address all aspects of drug abuse. This includes
underage use of legal drugs such as alcohol and tobacco, illicit street drugs,
inhalants and the inappropriate use of legal drugs such as prescription and over the
counter drugs.
 These programs must also be tailored to the specific needs of the audience. Having
specialized programs for different genders, ages, cultures and ethnicities only make
the programs more effective.

31
FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Drug abuse is a growing problem and prevention should be a priority in all of our
homes and communities.
Observation:
In Peru there is a Bill No. 1996-2017, which declares the learning and teaching of the
prevention of the use of drugs as a national interest and as a national public policy.
The objective of this initiative is for the Ministry of Education to structure a policy
aimed at the non-consumption of narcotics. "This would be at every level. That is to
say, it would begin at the initial level and continue up to higher education. It would not
be a course, necessarily. The design of this strategy would be in charge of the
Education sector ", highlighted Del Castillo.
He added that "there is nothing in the Peruvian education legislation aimed at not
using drugs, nor in the school curriculum." Moreover, he warned that, in 2013, the
Ministry of Education eliminated the Tutoring Directorate, which was "slightly"
responsible for this task.
"It is important to work on prevention because it is cheaper, because you can prevent
children from entering that world or because you can quickly remove a young person
who has just arrived," he said.
On this subject, Juan Carlos Araneda, coordinator of the Support Project to Reduce the
Demand for Illicit Drugs in the Andean Community (Predem), recalled that the United
Nations (UN) recommended the adoption of "primary, effective prevention measures".
and practices "to protect people, especially children and young people, from the
initiation of the use of these substances.
He emphasized that this can only be achieved by "providing them with accurate
information on the risks of drug abuse, promoting competencies and opportunities
that allow them to choose healthy lifestyles."
He expressed that the bill of parliamentarian Jorge del Castillo "is framed in these
recommendations." He reiterated the importance of prevention starting from the most
basic level, continuing in secondary school and continuing in higher education,
"because young people need to have a permanent reinforcement, year by year, of
what happens with prevention."
For his part, Belisario Zanabria, dean of the College of Psychologists of Peru, said that
drug users are those who have an inadequate personality structure, so, he said, they
are the parents called to contribute to their development.
He also stressed that the Peruvian educational system tends to fill students with
knowledge, but forgets an important part that is affective, emotional and sentimental
development, which allows to give the necessary strength not to resort to drugs.
He indicated that including drug prevention issues in schools is very important, but
parents should also be taken into account, so that parents know what to do or how to
raise their children and understand their development process well. He pointed out

32
FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERIN
PROFESSIONAL COLLEGE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

that in other countries there are laws that force couples who are going to get married
to go to schools for parents.
The Bill No. 1996 has been approved by the Education Commission of the Congress
and included in an opinion that includes other initiatives related to educational issues.

7 CONCLUSIONS
7.1 CHAPTER 1
 We use the English comparatives to talk about similarities and differences of
objects, people or any element between which we want to establish a comparison
relationship. The superlative, on the other hand, is used to indicate a maximum
degree of a certain quality.
7.2 CHAPTER 2
 In 2010 5.6% of Peruvians had tried marijuana and in 2017 the percentage rose to
8.1%.
 Marijuana is a drug that starts the consumption of other more potent drugs and
now with the use of biotechnological marijuana, which is more toxic, the likelihood
of more addiction among young people is higher.
 Currently in the country is consumes a type of marijuana three times more
powerful than the one consumed between the 60s and 70s, because the
concentration of the substance THC of the old drug was between 4% and 5%, and
