Question

Transform sentence with 'as soon as' to sentence with 'no sooner than'.
As soon as I finished my lunch, I started feeling hungry again.

• A. No sooner does he finish his lunch than he started feeling hungry again.
• B. No sooner had I finished my lunch then I started feeling hungry again.
• C. No sooner do I finish my lunch than I started feeling hungry again.
• D. No sooner had I finished my lunch than I started feeling hungry again.

Answer 1

The correct option is D No sooner had I finished my lunch than I started feeling hungry again.

'No sooner..than' is used to suggest that one action takes place immediately after another action. When 'no sooner..than' is used at the beginning of the sentences then auxiliary verb goes before the subject. No sooner always introduces the event that occurred first.

The given sentence can be transformed using no sooner..than by beginning the sentence with 'no sooner'' followed by 'than'.

Option D is the correct answer as the auxiliary verb 'had' is before the subject 'I'. Options A, B, and C are grammatically wrong.
