There are many ways to do this, and now I will introduce you to two:
1.Replace it with a phrase of consent.
Example 1: not any longer = no longer
i'm not a student any longer.=i'm no longer a student.
Example 2: be good at=do well in
i'm good at roller-skating.=i do well in roller-skating.
2.Interpretation of Meaning:
Example: Her father and mother came to our school yestoday
her parents came to our school yestoday.
2) This method may be used when writing essays. For example, if you don't know how to write a word when writing an essay, you can use interpretation to represent that word.
