To compare two items or activities, use the sentence pattern:

AよりB(の)はAdjです。(A yori B wa Adj desu.)

AよりB(の)の方がAdjです。(A yori B no hō ga Adj desu.)

日本より中国の方が大きいです。(Nihon yori Chuugoku no hou ga ookii desu)

AとBとどちらのほうが【Adj】 ですか。  
A to B to dochira no hou ga 【Adj】 desu ka?
Between A and B, which is more 【Adj】?
