More language for comparing

are considerably more expensive (an extra $4 per kilo), while at Healthy Harvest
they are only slightly more expensive (an additional $1 per kilo).
For example:
Widget sales fell between 2007 and 2009, but gadget sales experienced a far
greater decrease in the same period.
The new shopping mall will have a much larger car park.
