2. Leeds is smaller than Glasgow. (small) Leeds has a population of around 800,000, while Glasgow has a population of around 600,000. Therefore, we can conclude that Leeds is smaller than Glasgow.

3. The Thames is shorter than the Moskva River. (short) The length of the Thames is approximately 346 kilometers, while the Moskva River is approximately 502 kilometers long. Hence, the Thames is shorter than the Moskva River.

4. Your answer today cannot be determined as worse or better than yesterday without knowing what the answer was yesterday. We need additional information to make a comparison and determine if the answer is good or bad.

5. Days in winter are shorter than in summer. (short) In winter, due to the tilting of the Earth"s axis, the Northern Hemisphere experiences shorter days and longer nights. Conversely, in summer, the days are longer because the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun.

7. The Spasskaya Tower is lower than the Eiffel Tower. (low) The Eiffel Tower is one of the tallest structures in the world, standing at a height of approximately 330 meters.

8. My car is slower than Tom"s car. (slow) The speed of a car depends on various factors such as engine power, weight, and aerodynamics. If Tom"s car has a higher maximum speed or faster acceleration, we can conclude that my car is slower than Tom"s car.

9. It is impossible to determine if Kate is sadder than Mary without additional information about their emotional state or context. Sadness is a subjective feeling that varies from person to person. We need more details to make a comparison and decide if Kate is sadder than Mary.
