Answer 2

EXPLANATION:

(a) You are so lazy that you cannot walk.

When in a given sentence, ‘too’ is used, then in order to remove ‘too’ from the sentence, ‘so that’ is used and the sentence after ‘that’ is changed to negative form.

(b) Can Human nature change?

Interrogative sentences start from What, Which, When, Do, Can, Shall, etc. and question mark symbol is put at the end of the sentence to show that the sentence is a interrogative sentence.

(c) A man can live forever.

An assertive sentence can be defined as a positive statement.
