You were mistaken in one sentence. Only after...did you realise... This is an inversion form.

Dear teachers, I have some questions on sentence transformations.
So, let' s take examples:

He spent money like water.
I'd rather___________

We must leave the country on one account.
On no account______________ the country.

When we explain the situation to him, we will understand.
If he____________________.

Thank you for your time.

Hello Madame Bovary,

Your sentences are not particularly appropriate for transformation. My comments are inside the quote in red.

[Madame_Bovary]

I truly apologize. It is "If we explain the situation to him, HE will understand." I wrote it wrong. Yes, these sentences I find extremely hard, but they are taken from my last exam and I didn't know how to transform them. Thank you for your time.

Can I ask something(again)?

Sentence like "I'm sure that the United will win the match against the City" needs to be re-written using BOUND. How it will look like?

Thank you!!! :)

[Madame_Bovary]

One more thing. Sentence: They think that he is the most appropriate man for that job needs to be transformed beggining with He is______________. I wrote He is said to be the most..... and it was wrong. Which is correct transformation?

I have problems with the constructions would rather/ would prefer. I have learned:

when the person who expresses the preference is not the s. of action which follows, we use WOULD PREFER+ object + infinitiv or WOULD RATHER + subject + past subjunctive:

She wants to fly but I'd rather she went by train / I'd rather her to go by train.

So, according to this, how the sentence I'd rather you didn't tell Peter about it should be transformed beggining with I'd prefer________________

[Madame_Bovary]

Or these sentences:

The police didn't at all suspect that the judge was the murderer.
Little___________________________________________________

If you happen to meet Peter, would you introduce me to him?
Is this transformation possible: Should you introduce me to Peter when you meet him?

The only thing that prevented the passing of the bill was the death of the Prime Minister.
Had it no________________________________

Thank you really much for your help. I'm really trying to rewrite sentences, but I simply don't have an idea.
