Do as directed 8th standard

 1️⃣ Use “not only … but also”

Rule:

It is used to join two similar ideas.

The structure shows emphasis on both actions/qualities.

Example:

The mist conceals the hills. It blankets them in silence too.

The mist not only conceals the hills but also blankets them in silence.

2️⃣ Change the Voice (Active → Passive)

Rule:

In active voice, the subject does the action.

In passive voice, the action is done to the subject.

Use: am / is / are / was / were + past participle (V³)

Example:

I can hear him running about on the hillside.

He can be heard running about on the hillside.

3️⃣ Use “without”

Rule:

“Without” shows that something happens and another thing does NOT happen.

The verb after “without” is always in -ing form.

Example:

They sometimes contrive to go unnoticed.

They sometimes contrive to go without being noticed.

4️⃣ Turn into Affirmative

Rule:

Remove negative words like not, never, no.

Replace them with a positive meaning.

Example:

It doesn’t keep me from sleeping.

It allows me to sleep.

                 OR

It does not prevent me from sleeping → It lets me sleep.

5️⃣ Turn into a Complex Sentence

Rule:

A complex sentence has:

One main clause

One subordinate clause

Use words like which, that, who, because, when, while.

Example:

Water drips from a leaking drainpipe.

Water drips from a drainpipe which is leaking.

 Change the Degree of Comparison

🔹 What is Degree of Comparison?

Adjectives have three degrees:

Positive – simple quality

old, tall, good

Comparative – compares two

 older, taller, better

Superlative – compares more than two

oldest, tallest, best

Example :

What is the oldest living thing in the world? (Change the Degree)

🔹 Changed sentence:

What is older than any other living thing in the world?

Here, superlative (oldest) is changed into comparative (older than any other).

 Meaning remains the same.

More Examples:

Superlative: This is the tallest building in the city.

Comparative: This building is taller than any other building in the city.

Superlative: She is the best student in the class.

Comparative: She is better than any other student in the class.

2️⃣ Turn into a Simple Sentence

What is a Simple Sentence?

A simple sentence has:

only one main clause

no conjunctions like and, because, when

We often use:

-ing form (present participle)

having + verb

🔹 Example:

I jumped into the Great Glass Elevator and rushed all over the world. (Turn into Simple)

🔹 Simple sentence:

Jumping into the Great Glass Elevator, I rushed all over the world.

 “Jumping” is an -ing form

Two actions are combined into one sentence

Meaning stays the same

(3) Turn into Affirmative sentence

🔹 What is an Affirmative sentence?

An affirmative sentence is a positive statement.

When a sentence has no / not / never, we remove the negative word and adjust the meaning.

📘 Example:

It was no more than an ounce or two.

✅ Affirmative:

It was only an ounce or two.

 no more than → only

✨ More Examples:

Negative: He is not a bad boy.

Affirmative: He is a good boy.

Negative: She did not fail the exam.

Affirmative: She passed the exam.

(4) Change the Voice (Passive → Active)

🔹 What is Voice?

Active voice: Subject does the action

Passive voice: Action is done to the subject

📘 Example:

It produced one tiny cupful of black liquid.

(This is already active voice)

Passive:

One tiny cupful of black liquid was produced by it.

✨ More Examples:

Active: She wrote a letter.

Passive: A letter was written by her.

Active: The cat killed the rat.

Passive: The rat was killed by the cat.

(5) Turn into Exclamatory sentence

🔹 What is an Exclamatory sentence?

It shows strong feelings like joy, surprise, excitement.

Starts with What / How and ends with !

📘 Example:

It was fantastic.

✅ Exclamatory:

How fantastic it was!

✨ More Examples:

Statement: She is very clever.

Exclamatory: How clever she is!

Statement: The scene is beautiful.

Exclamatory: What a beautiful scene it is!

(6) Use “when”

🔹 Rule:

Join two actions

Use when to show time

Remove extra words like the moment

📘 Example:

The moment he swallowed it, he began wrinkling and shrivelling up all over.

✅ Using when:

When he swallowed it, he began wrinkling and shrivelling up all over.

✨ More Examples:

He reached home. He started studying.

👉 When he reached home, he started studying.

(7) Use “as soon as”

🔹 Rule:

Shows immediate action

Often replaces and suddenly / immediately

📘 Example :

He swallowed it and suddenly became an old fellow of seventy-five.

✅ Using as soon as:

As soon as he swallowed it, he became an old fellow of seventy-five.

✨ More Examples:

She saw the snake. She ran away.

As soon as she saw the snake, she ran away.

Very Important 

Affirmative → remove no / not and make positive

Voice → object ↔ subject

Exclamatory → How / What + !

When → for time

As soon as → immediate result
