Логика упражнения: надо слова заменить отрицанием+антонимом. То есть - хороший = не плохой. Dark (темный) = not light (не светлый).

Если слово уже дано с отрицанием (unkind - недобрый), то мы опять же заменяем отрицанием и антонимом, то есть словом без -un. Unkind = not kind.

Если в примере есть rather (довольно), то работаем по следующему шаблону: Rather dark (довольно темный) = not so light (не очень светлый).

1. Jessie is not so cheerful today. (не такая радостная. gloomy - хмурый)

2.  Polly's new dress is not so light. (не такое светлое. dark - темный)

3.  Mary was nervous and unhappy yesterday, but today she is not so fussy. (не такая суетливая. calm - спокойный).

4.  I suddenly understood that this character in the book was not kindly and at times even cruel. (недружелюбный. unkindly - то же значение).

5. The baby has grown up a little. It is not so tiny now. (не такой крошечный. big - большой).

6.  I found yesterdays film not so fascinating. (не такими захватывающими. boring - скучный).

7. . Next time when you come home from walk I`d like your clothes to be less filthy (менее запачканными. clean - чистый).

8. All the students in this group are very hardworking, only Bill is not so willing (не такой усердный. laxy - ленивый).

9.  I am afraid Bill isn't also polite when he talks to his friends. (невежливый. rude - грубый).

10. The Smiths` car is not up-to-date but Mr Smith says he likes it. (несовременная. old-fashioned - старомодный).

11. The shops in this street were built over a hundred years ago, it is not surprising they are not modern and badly-equipped. (не новые. old - старый).

12.  The last story in this book is not so impressive compared to the others . (не такая впечатляющая. unimpressive - то же значение).
