Final answer:
To change 'This is not good.' into an affirmative, one can say 'This is fine.' The key is to rephrase the negative without changing the meaning, considering the context and sentiment.
Step-by-step explanation:
To change the sentence 'This is not good.' into an affirmative statement, you might say: 'This is fine.' or 'This is acceptable.' The exercise here is to maintain the same basic meaning while reframing the sentence in a positive light. When changing sentences from negative to affirmative, the context provided by examples can serve as a helpful guide. Let's look at a few sentences:
- Instead of 'I disagree with their ideas.', you can say, 'I have a different perspective.'
- Changing 'I do not want to be shut in with you.' to the affirmative might result in something like, 'I prefer to have some space.'
- The sentence 'That is not what I meant, at all.' might become, 'I meant something quite different.'
The idea is to rephrase the negative statement without altering the intended meaning, which requires considering the context and the sentiment behind the original statement.
