Step 1: Only two people are compared ("of the two"), so the comparative degree is needed: "the more talkative". The superlative "most" is used for three or more. Step 2: The gap comes before a noun ("children"), so a possessive determiner is required: "her". The absolute form "hers" cannot stand before a noun. Step 3: The gap refers to the verb "behave" and is followed by "than", so the comparative of the adverb "well" is needed: "better". The superlative "best" does not combine with "than" or with "even" in this way. The only set that meets all three requirements is "more; her; better".
