Choose the most suitable option to replace the highlighted part of the sentence: He writes as better as a professional editor.

Explanation

The correct option is (a) as well as. The highlighted phrase “as better as” is grammatically incorrect. In English, when we compare ability or performance in an equal manner, we use the structure as + adverb/adjective + as, or we use the fixed expression as well as to mean “to the same standard as.” Here, “writes” is a verb, so an adverb is appropriate to describe how he writes. The correct adverb is “well,” and the correct expression is “as well as.” Therefore: “He writes as well as a professional editor.” Grammatical rule used: For verbs, use adverbs: write well, speak clearly, work hard. Equality comparison: as + adverb + as (e.g., “He runs as fast as his brother.”) Common equivalent form: as well as (meaning “equally well”).

Why other options are incorrect: Option (b) as good as: “Good” is an adjective; it would fit with a noun or linking verb, not directly with “writes.” Option (c) so better than: Incorrect structure and wrong comparison type; “better than” indicates superiority, not equality. Option (d) as better than: Mixes two different comparison patterns and is grammatically incorrect. Booster tip: Remember: good (adjective) vs well (adverb). With action verbs, “well” is generally required. So the correct answer is (a)
