They are so slow that they cannot win the race.
- The conversion of "too" to "so that" is one of the most important grammatical practices for the academic level English studies.
- In this conversion, we can observe that the sentence becomes negative when we used "so that" instead of "too".
- So, we can also use this conversion if instruction of conversion to negative sentence is given.
- The tense of the two sentences remains the same.

Rewrite the sentence: They are too slow to win the race.
Explanation:
- The correct answer is - They are so slow that they cannot win the race(option i)
- 'Too slow' can be rewritten as "so slow," which has the same meaning.
- The given sentence is in the present tense. So we should use 'are' and not ' were.'
- The sentence gives the meaning that they are slow in the race and cannot win it.
- The sentence with the appropriate meaning is "They are so slow that they cannot win the race."
