The tower is taller than _________ building around it.

问题描述:

The tower is taller than _________ building around it.
A.any B. any other C. the other D. any of the other

选 B
any other “其他任何一个”,后面接单数名词.“这个塔比它周围的建筑物要高”
如果选A,没有排除主语自己,错了.
如果选C,the other 后接复数名词,与本题单数的building矛盾了.
如果选D,any of the other 也后接复数名词,也与本题单数的building矛盾了.
希望我的回答能够帮到你,
