Options:

(C)

(A)

(B)

(D)

Correct Answer:

(C)

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → (C)

The given sentence "A child and so intelligent at this age!" is an exclamatory sentence expressing surprise or admiration at the intelligence of a child at such a young age.

The assertive sentence "It is wonderful that a child is so intelligent at this age." conveys the same idea in a positive and assertive manner. It acknowledges the intelligence of the child and expresses appreciation for it.

The use of "It is wonderful" in the assertive sentence conveys a sense of admiration, similar to the sentiment expressed in the original sentence. Additionally, by stating "that a child is so intelligent at this age," the assertive sentence explicitly acknowledges the remarkable intelligence of the child while maintaining a positive tone.

Overall, the assertive sentence effectively conveys the admiration for the intelligence of the child without the exclamatory tone of surprise present in the original sentence.
