Explanation:

B. Tall

- Tall: No spelling change is needed; it becomes "taller."

- Ugly: The spelling changes to "uglier" (dropping the "y" and adding "ier").

- Slimy: The spelling changes to "slimier" (dropping the "y" and adding "ier").

Therefore, **"tall"** is the correct choice as it does not require a spelling change before adding "-er."
