framing questions transformation of sentences english

  1. What does he do?

  2. How does he write?

  3. Who writes as well as he speaks?

  4. How does he speak?

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A question needs to be framed for which the underlined part, "as well as he speaks" is the answer.
So, the question should ask 'how' well he writes, the response to which is in comparison to how he speaks.
Option B: 'How does he write?' asks how he writes. The underlined part 'as well as he speaks' is a suitable response for the question 'how'. It answers by comparing similar qualities.
(The given sentence says that he writes well, the same as he speaks well.)
Hence option B is correct.
Option A: The question asks 'what'. However, the response is not appropriate for 'what' he does. So, the question is ambiguous. Hence, this question isn't appropriate for the underlined part.
Option C: This question asks about which person 'who'. The underlined part does not answer this question. It does not answer to 'who' writes as well as he speaks, but 'how'.
Option D: The underlined part does not answer the question 'how he speaks'. The response sounds incomplete for this question, because 'as well as' denotes a comparison with something else.
Instead, the response is for a question that asks 'how he writes'.
Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.

Explanation:

Wh-questions are used to ask certain types of questions. What, when, why, whom, who, whose, where and how are the wh-questions. 

Where is used to ask in or at what place or position. 
The highlighted part of the sentence shows the place 'vendor's stall'. 
Thus, option A is the correct answer. Rest of the options are incorrect ones. 

Frame a question such that the underlined part of the sentence given is the answer:
The hill had one of the best views I have ever seen since it overlooked a beautiful creek in the woods. 

framing questions transformation of sentences english

  1. What did the hill have?

  2. How was the hill's view?

  3. Why did the hill have one of the best views?

  4. Which place did the hill overlook?

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

A question needs to be framed for which the underlined part, "since it overlooked..." is the answer.
So, the question should ask 'why?', the response to which is a reason, because it begins with 'since'.
Option C: 'Why did the hill have one of the best views?' asks 'why?'. The underlined part is a response to that: 'since it overlooked a beautiful creek...',
Hence option C is correct.
Option A: The response is not 'what the hills have', but it is 'why the hills have one of the best views'.
Hence this question isn't appropriate for the underlined part.
Option B: This question asks 'how the view was'. The underlined part does not answer this question. The response tells 'why' and not 'how', the hills have one of the best views.
Option D: Similarly, the underlined part does not answer the question 'which place'. The response sounds incomplete for this question.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.

framing questions transformation of sentences english

  1. How

  2. Does

  3. Has

  4. Is

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The correct is Option D.

We are to use the suitable word that completes the given sentence which is in the question form.
Option A-HOW is used when one asks about the manner or style of anything, place or event.
Option B-DOES is the first person singular of the verb 'do'. There is nothing being done in the sentence by Dhoni. 
Option C-HAS is used to indicate possession or an experience. In the given sentence there is no such meaning conveyed.
Hence these 3 options are incorrect.
Option D- IS is a form of the verb 'be'. 'Be' is a word that indicates existence. The given sentence questions whether Dhoni is still the number one international player.
Hence using IS satisfies the meaning of the sentence and is the correct answer.

Hence Option B is the correct answer.
