Which sentence makes a complete comparison?

A. Victor likes video games more than me.
B. Victor likes video games more than I do.
C. Jeremy hates sushi as much as his brother.
D. Stephanie values a good cup of coffee more than me.

The correct answer is: B. Victor likes video games more than I do.

The sentence that makes a complete comparison is accurate because it correctly uses the structure necessary for a proper comparison between Victor and another person. In this context, the phrase "more than I do" clearly establishes that Victor's enjoyment of video games surpasses your enjoyment, aligning the verb “likes” with the correct subject pronoun "I.” This creates a grammatically and logically sound comparison. In contrast, other options may lead to ambiguous or incorrect interpretations. For instance, "more than me" lacks the necessary verb structure that completes the comparison, causing confusion about who enjoys video games more. Similarly, "Jeremy hates sushi as much as his brother" does not follow the same format for comparison concerning an action or preference; instead, it makes a statement about equivalence rather than comparison in terms of degree. Lastly, "Stephanie values a good cup of coffee more than me" has a similar issue, lacking a verb with the subject pronoun to clarify the comparison being made. Overall, the correct answer presents a clear and complete comparison that accurately conveys the intended meaning.
