Answer:
Required correct answers are
I) Vivek is the tallest among all the boys.
ii) I am taller than someone who is as tall as Jane.
iii) Namrata is an intelligent girl.
Explanation:
i) "Very few boys are as tall as Vivek" can be changed into the superlative degree as "Vivek is the tallest among all the boys." Here, the comparison is being made between Vivek and all the other boys, and Vivek is being portrayed as the one with the highest degree of tallness among them. Hence, the superlative degree is appropriate.
ii) "I am as tall as Jane" can be changed into the comparative degree as "I am taller than someone who is as tall as Jane." Here, the comparison is being made between the heights of the speaker and Jane, and the speaker is being portrayed as having a higher degree of tallness than someone who is already as tall as Jane. Hence, the comparative degree is appropriate.
iii) "Namrata is more intelligent than any other girl in her class" can be changed into the positive degree as "Namrata is an intelligent girl." Here, the comparison is being made between Namrata's intelligence and the intelligence of other girls in her class, but there is no explicit comparison made between her and any specific girl. Hence, the positive degree is appropriate.
