Please post questions with the choices.

IMO: I see this forum as "together we grow" place.
So kindly make sure your posts are a value for someone in the forum.

I got this sentence from below forum, which gives incorrect sentences.
I posted this question to know why the comparisons are wrong. Hence
The sentences are neither underlined nor have 5 options

I believe the post would be useful in understanding comparsions
as I didnt find the correct versions of these choice anywhere
