He is a very polite boy.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → What a polite boy he is!
Assertive to exclamatory:
| Change | Assertive | Exclamatory | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Opening words | a very polite boy | What a polite boy | “Very” + adjective + noun in an assertive sentence becomes “What a + adjective + noun” in the exclamatory form. |
| Word order | He is | he is | The subject and verb come after it (“he is”). |
| End mark | (.) | (!) | The sentence ends with an exclamation mark. |
| Full sentence | He is a very polite boy. | What a polite boy he is! |
Example: It is a very beautiful painting. → What a beautiful painting it is!
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: He was quite a polite boy. — Incorrect. It is still an assertive sentence, and the tense changes to the past.
Option 2: No boy was as polite. — Incorrect. It is a comparison (positive degree) in the past tense, not an exclamation.
Option 3: He is not a polite boy. — Incorrect. It is a negative sentence with the opposite meaning.
