Yes, but that's not enough. You need another word before "than" (clue: it begins with "r")

2) His boss told him he was fired and ordered him to leave immediately Use "got" to rewrite, start by: His boss told him he _____________________ and said he sould leave immediately

"to get the sack" is an idiomatic expression for "being fired". Does it help?

At least in American English, it is NOT a requirement to have "rather than." You can use "than" all by itself.

You're absolutely right! I wrote "need," which is wrong, because it's only my personal preference.

Sorry about that!
