passive transformation

[Irene29]

Hi,

Please could you advise me how to modify the following sentence:
It was good to bask in the sun of the Indian summer.

This sentence should be transformed according to this model:
It was easy to get on with him.
He was easy to get on with.

To my mind, it’s impossible because there is no object to transform in this sentence.

Hi Irene,

I agree this seems an impossible request especially because 'bask' already has a passive sense - to be exposed to.

So they want to you modify the sentence like this model?

It was easy to get on with him. --> He was easy to get on with.

Here they are taking the object of the final preposition and making it the subject.
So for your sentence I would say:

It was good to bask in the sun of the Indian summer. --> The sun of the Indian summer was good to bask in.

Thank you, Luschen!

Yes, I agree. The sun of the Indian summer was good to bask in is the modified form based on the model suggested. Perhaps, Alan didn't notice the model.
