Answer 1

This will definitely a good solution

    String originalString = "This is a string";
    originalString =originalString.replaceFirst("This ", "");

String str = "This is a string";    

String str2=str.substring(str.indexOf(" "));
String str3=str.replaceFirst(str2, "");

Answer 3

also you can use this solution:

static String substringer(String inputString, String remove) {
    if (inputString.substring(0, remove.length()).equalsIgnoreCase(remove)) {
        return inputString.substring(remove.length()).trim();
    }
    else {
            return inputString.trim();
    }
}

Example : substringer("This is a string", "This");
