Solution

The correct option is C No other queen as good as Elizabeth ever reigned in England.

A sentence is a group of words that is complete in itself.

There are four main types of sentences:

Simple or declarative sentence- It is used for information purpose.

Command or Imperative sentence- It is used to make requests or give orders, commands etc.

Question or Interrogative Sentence- It is used to ask questions and ends with a question mark(?).

Exclamatory Sentence- It is used to express emotions and ends with an exclamatory mark (!)

An affirmative sentence contains a positive form which can be transformed to negative form without changing the meaning just by changing a few words.

The correct answer is C)No other queen as good as Elizabeth ever reigned in England.

Option C is correct as the best means no other queen can be compared to Elizabeth (as good as Elizabeth).

The other options are wrong as Elizabeth was the best (not better), the meaning is not changed, and the subject of the sentence is changed.
