【解析】
试题分析：根据语境可知此句的含义是他比这个班的任何一个人都高，因我弟弟和这个班级的所有同学作为一整体，故用比较级，后半句表明他是我们学校最高的人，故用最高级，故选D。
考点：比较级和最高级的使用。
点评：在英文的比较级中，比较的内容不能互相兼容，如果比较的事物包括前者，应用other将其排除，注意比较级这种特殊用法。在做题中使用用比较级还是最高级，首先要根据语境来判断，若出现两者进行比较就用比较级，若给出比较的范围三者或三者以上就选择最高级。

When I was 16 years old, I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn’t the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children, I learnt French at school and I had often been to France, so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn’t understand English. But when I went to America I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.
How wrong I was! The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Danny a ring and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking like being lost and asked if he could help me.
“Yes,”I said.“I want to give my friend a ring.”
“Well, that’s nice,”he exclaimed (惊呼).“Are you getting married? But aren’t you a bit young？”
“Who is talking about marriage?” I replied. “I just want to give my friend a ring to tell her I’ve arrived. Can you tell me where there’s a phone box?”
“Oh!”he said.“There’s a phone downstairs.”
When at last we did meet up, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.“Don’t worry,” she said to me.“I had many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from us British. You’ll soon get used to all the funny things they say. But most of the time British and American people can understand each other!”
