Convert 'The book is too heavy to carry' using 'so...that'.
Show answer
The book is so heavy that I cannot carry it.
Step 1: 'Too + adjective + to + verb' structure expresses impossibility or difficulty. Step 2: 'So...that' structure needs to express the same meaning of impossibility. Step 3: Replace 'too' with 'so' and add 'that' followed by a negative clause. Step 4: 'Cannot/could not' maintains the meaning of impossibility from 'too...to'. Step 5: Option B changes meaning to possibility, C is incomplete, and D has incorrect grammar.
Change 'As soon as the rain stopped, children went out to play' using 'No sooner...than'.
Show answer
No sooner did the rain stop than children went out to play.
Step 1: 'As soon as' in simple past tense converts to 'No sooner...than' with inversion. Step 2: Since original sentence uses simple past 'stopped', we use 'did' + base form 'stop'. Step 3: The structure is: No sooner + did + subject + base verb + than + second clause. Step 4: Option B lacks auxiliary verb, Option C uses past perfect unnecessarily, Option D uses wrong verb form 'stopped' instead of 'stop'. Step 5: Inversion is mandatory with 'No sooner'.
Convert the comparative sentence 'Mumbai is more crowded than Delhi' to superlative degree.
Show answer
Mumbai is one of the most crowded cities.
Step 1: Comparative degree compares two entities - Mumbai and Delhi. Step 2: To convert to superlative, we need to compare among many entities, not just declare it the most crowded. Step 3: 'One of the most crowded cities' is appropriate as it suggests Mumbai ranks among the top crowded cities. Step 4: 'The most crowded city' would be too absolute without mentioning the group being compared. Step 5: Options C and D have grammatical errors and don't use superlative degree properly.
Transform 'Despite the heavy rain, the match continued' using 'Although'.
Show answer
Although it rained heavily, the match continued.
Step 1: 'Despite' is followed by a noun phrase, while 'Although' is followed by a complete clause. Step 2: Convert the noun phrase 'heavy rain' into a clause with subject and verb. Step 3: 'It rained heavily' is the most natural way to express the action. Step 4: Option B lacks a verb, making it grammatically incorrect. Step 5: Options C and D are grammatically correct but less natural than the standard 'it rained heavily' construction.
