Question

Rewrite the given sentences as directed. (Any two) 
(i) Rewrite the given sentence after removing 'too'. She is too old to walk.
(ii) Transform the given sentence using 'No sooner dots than'. As soon as he saw the tiger, he took to heels.
(iii) Change the degree of comparison. The peacock is the most beautiful bird.

Hint:

- Too + Adj + to = So + Adj + that + cannot. - "No sooner" always takes "than" (not when/then).

Answer 1

Step 1: Removing 'too' - We replace 'too' with 'so' and 'to' with 'that... cannot'.
Step 2: No sooner... than - 'As soon as' is replaced by 'No sooner did', and the second clause starts with 'than'. The past verb 'saw' changes to the base form 'see' because of 'did'.
Step 3: Degrees of Comparison - The superlative 'most beautiful' is changed to positive degree using 'No other... as beautiful as'.
