Question

Transform sentences with 'as soon as' to sentences with 'no sooner than'.
As soon as he sees other children play, he gets playful.

• A. No sooner did he sees other children play than he gets playful.
• B. No sooner does he see other children play than he gets playful.
• C. No sooner did he see other children play, he got playful.
• D. No sooner did he sees other children play than he got playful.

Answer 1

The correct option is B No sooner does he see other children play than he gets playful.

'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'.

Thus, option B is the correct answer as 'auxiliary verb - does' is before the subject 'he'. Options A, C, and D are grammatically wrong.
