Transform the given Assertive sentence into an exclamatory sentence:

It is very foolish of me to ask for money.

  • A.I was a fool to ask for money!
  • B.How foolish of me to ask for money!
  • C.Oh! Why did I ask for money!
  • D.I asked for money!

Answer: B

The exclamatory sentence is How foolish of me to ask for money!

An assertive sentence with 'very' + adjective becomes exclamatory by putting How before the adjective and ending with an exclamation mark: 'It is very foolish of me' becomes 'How foolish of me'. The meaning stays exactly the same.

'I was a fool to ask for money!' changes the tense and the wording. 'Oh! Why did I ask for money!' turns the statement into a question of regret. 'I asked for money!' drops the idea of foolishness altogether.
