verified योग्य उत्तर: पर्याय (1) - सविस्तर स्पष्टीकरण

अचूक उत्तर: पर्याय (१) Only a

स्पष्टीकरण:

Superlative चे Positive Degree मध्ये रूपांतर:

तपशीलवार विश्लेषण:

१. दिलेले वाक्य: *"Swimming is the best exercise."*
२. येथे 'the best' हे एकमेव श्रेष्ठत्व (Unique Superlative) दर्शवते ('one of the' नाही).
३. जेव्हा Superlative Degree मध्ये 'the + Superlative' असते, तेव्हा Positive Degree ची सुरुवात "No other + Singular Noun" ने होते:
• रचना: *No other + exercise + is + as good as + swimming.*
• वाक्य a: *"No other exercise is as good as swimming."* (पूर्णतः बरोबर).
४. वाक्य b: "Very few exercises..." ही रचना 'one of the best' साठी वापरली जाते, त्यामुळे येथे चुकीची आहे.

त्यामुळे फक्त वाक्य a बरोबर आहे.

📌 MPSC परीक्षा टीप:

Unique Superlative vs One of the:

• *The best* -> Positive: No other... is as good as
• *One of the best* -> Positive: Very few... are as good as
translate English Explanation / स्पष्टीकरण:

Correct Answer: Option (1) Only a

Explanation:

The question tests transformation of a unique superlative sentence into the positive degree.

Detailed Analysis:

1. Base sentence: *"Swimming is the best exercise."*
2. Because it asserts unique superiority (*the best*, not *one of the best*), the positive degree must begin with "No other + singular noun".
• Formula: *No other + exercise + is + as good as + swimming.* (Sentence a).
3. Sentence b starts with *Very few*, which is only applicable to *one of the best*.
4. Thus, only sentence a is correct.

Hence, Option (1) is correct.
