Sagar chauhan answered |
The given sentence is in the active voice, and there are two parts of this sentence, as it has two clauses "We hope" and "we shall win the match". It's a complex sentence as one clause is dependent on the other. The subject 'we' performs the action 'hope' and in the second part the subject 'we' performs the action 'shall win' against the object 'the match'.
If this sentence is changed to passive voice, then the subject, verb form and object are all changed, in order to retain the meaning of the sentence.
So, the object takes the place of the subject and vice versa and the word 'by' is introduced as now the subject receives the action by the object. The verb form of the sentence is also changed from active form to passive.
'Subject (we) + verb (hope)' will change to 'subject (it) + verb (is hoped)'
and
'Subject (We) + verb (shall win) + object (the match)' changes to:
'New subject (the match) + verb (will be won) + by + new object (us)'
'That' is the conjunction that joins these two clauses.
The passive form of 'hope' in the simple present tense is 'is hoped' and 'shall win' is 'will be won'.
This can be seen in option C, hence it's the right answer.
Option A: This sentence combines the clauses and reduces it to one clause. The question does not call for the sentence to be changed from complex to simple.
Option B: This sentence has been changed in meaning as well as structure.
Option D: This sentence too has been reduced to a simple sentence, where one clause has been reduced to the subject 'match winning'.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.

The Passive Voice:
When a sentence is in the active voice, the subject of the sentence performs the action. However, in the passive voice, the subject receives the action. To change a sentence from active to passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence, and the verb is changed to the passive form.
The given sentence:
The given sentence is "She told me a story." To change this sentence into the passive voice, we need to make the object of the active sentence (a story) the subject of the passive sentence, and change the verb (told) to the passive form.
The correct answer:
The correct answer is option 'B' - "I was told a story by her."
Explanation:
In the passive voice, the object of the active sentence (a story) becomes the subject of the passive sentence. In this case, "a story" becomes the subject.
The verb "told" is changed to the passive form by using the past participle "told" and adding the auxiliary verb "was" before it. The past participle of "tell" remains the same, so the verb "told" is used without any changes.
The phrase "by her" is added at the end of the sentence to indicate who performed the action (she).
Therefore, the sentence "She told me a story" is changed to "I was told a story by her" in the passive voice.

Answer:
To change a sentence from active voice to passive voice, we need to follow a certain structure:
Structure:
Passive subject + auxiliary verb (form of "be") + main verb (past participle) + by + agent (optional)
In the given sentence, "I sent the parcel in the morning," the subject is "I" and the verb is "sent." To change this into passive voice, we need to make the object (the parcel) the subject of the sentence and use the appropriate form of "be" (in this case, "was") followed by the past participle of the verb (sent).
Therefore, the correct passive voice sentence would be:
"The parcel was sent in the morning."
Explanation:
- Subject: The subject of the active voice sentence is "I" because the sentence is about the action performed by the speaker.
- Object: The object of the active voice sentence is "the parcel" because it is the receiver of the action.
- Verb: The verb in the active voice sentence is "sent" because it describes the action performed by the subject.
- Passive Voice Structure: In the passive voice, the object of the active voice sentence becomes the subject, and the verb is changed to its past participle form (sent). The appropriate form of "be" (was) is used, followed by the past participle of the verb.
- Agent (optional): In passive voice sentences, the agent (the doer of the action) can be mentioned using the preposition "by." However, in this case, the sentence does not mention who sent the parcel, so the agent is not specified.
Therefore, the correct passive voice sentence is: "The parcel was sent in the morning."
To change a sentence from active voice to passive voice, we need to follow a certain structure:
Structure:
Passive subject + auxiliary verb (form of "be") + main verb (past participle) + by + agent (optional)
In the given sentence, "I sent the parcel in the morning," the subject is "I" and the verb is "sent." To change this into passive voice, we need to make the object (the parcel) the subject of the sentence and use the appropriate form of "be" (in this case, "was") followed by the past participle of the verb (sent).
Therefore, the correct passive voice sentence would be:
"The parcel was sent in the morning."
Explanation:
- Subject: The subject of the active voice sentence is "I" because the sentence is about the action performed by the speaker.
- Object: The object of the active voice sentence is "the parcel" because it is the receiver of the action.
- Verb: The verb in the active voice sentence is "sent" because it describes the action performed by the subject.
- Passive Voice Structure: In the passive voice, the object of the active voice sentence becomes the subject, and the verb is changed to its past participle form (sent). The appropriate form of "be" (was) is used, followed by the past participle of the verb.
- Agent (optional): In passive voice sentences, the agent (the doer of the action) can be mentioned using the preposition "by." However, in this case, the sentence does not mention who sent the parcel, so the agent is not specified.
Therefore, the correct passive voice sentence is: "The parcel was sent in the morning."

b) were locked: This option uses the past tense form of the verb "to be" ("were") instead of the present tense form, so it is not correct.
c) being locked: This option uses the present participle form of the verb "to be" ("being") instead of the main verb "to be", so it is not correct.
d) had been locked: This option uses the past perfect tense form of the verb "to be" ("had been") instead of the present tense form, so it is not correct.

Solution:
To change a sentence from active voice to passive voice, we need to follow a specific pattern:
Active voice: Subject + Verb + Object
Passive voice: Object + be verb + past participle + by + subject
Let's analyze the given sentence and the options provided:
Original Sentence: The Romans expected to conquer Carthage.
Option a: Carthage was expected to be conquered by the Romans.
In this option, the subject "Carthage" is in the correct position as the object of the active sentence. The verb "was expected" is the past form of "expect" and matches the tense of the original sentence. The phrase "to be conquered" is the past participle form of "conquer." The phrase "by the Romans" correctly identifies the doer of the action. Therefore, option a is not the correct answer.
Option b: The Romans were expected to conquer Carthage.
In this option, the subject "The Romans" is in the correct position as the object of the active sentence. The verb "were expected" is the past form of "expect" and matches the tense of the original sentence. However, the phrase "to conquer" is still in the active form and should be in the passive form "to be conquered." Therefore, option b is not the correct answer.
Option c: It was expected by the Romans that they would conquer Carthage.
In this option, the subject "It" is a placeholder pronoun used in passive voice constructions. The verb "was expected" is the past form of "expect" and matches the tense of the original sentence. The phrase "by the Romans" correctly identifies the doer of the action. The phrase "that they would conquer Carthage" correctly represents the original sentence in the passive voice. Therefore, option c is the correct answer.
Option d: The Romans expected to have conquered Carthage.
In this option, the subject "The Romans" is in the correct position as the object of the active sentence. The verb "expected" matches the tense of the original sentence. However, the phrase "to have conquered" is still in the active form and should be in the passive form "to be conquered." Therefore, option d is not the correct answer.
Conclusion:
Option c, "It was expected by the Romans that they would conquer Carthage," is the correct answer as it accurately represents the given sentence in the passive voice.

Explanation:
In the given sentence, the subject "my father" is performing the action of helping and the object "me" is receiving the action. To change the sentence into the passive voice, we need to make the object "me" the subject of the sentence and the subject "my father" the object of the sentence.
Steps to convert active voice to passive voice:
1. Identify the subject, verb, and object in the active voice sentence.
2. Make the object of the active voice sentence the subject of the passive voice sentence.
3. Use the appropriate form of the verb "to be" + past participle of the main verb.
4. Include the subject of the active voice sentence in a prepositional phrase introduced by "by" to indicate who or what is performing the action.
5. Adjust the verb tense if necessary.
Conversion:
Active Voice: My father helps me.
Passive Voice: I am helped by my father.
Detailed Conversion:
- The subject of the active voice sentence is "my father".
- The verb in the active voice sentence is "helps".
- The object of the active voice sentence is "me".

helps -> helped
3. Include the subject of the active voice sentence in a prepositional phrase introduced by "by" to indicate who or what is performing the action:
my father (subject) -> by my father
Therefore, the passive voice sentence is: I am helped by my father. (Option A)
In the given sentence, the subject "my father" is performing the action of helping and the object "me" is receiving the action. To change the sentence into the passive voice, we need to make the object "me" the subject of the sentence and the subject "my father" the object of the sentence.

Detailed Conversion:
- The subject of the active voice sentence is "my father".
- The verb in the active voice sentence is "helps".
- The object of the active voice sentence is "me".
To convert the active voice sentence into passive voice, we need to follow the steps mentioned above.
1. Make the object of the active voice sentence the subject of the passive voice sentence:
me (object) -> I (subject)

Shruti jain answered |
An action in a sentence can be represented in two ways, namely active and passive voice.
The passive voice always uses the past participle form of the main verb irrespective of any tense. Only the auxiliary verbs depend upon the sentence given in active voice.
The sentence given is in the active voice.
The correct answer is A) Why is time wasted by you?
Option A) is correct as the subject of the given sentence (time) comes in the place of the object (you) and vice versa. Also, the main verb (waste) is used in the third form (wasted).
Options B, C and D are not correct as 'been' cannot be used here, the auxiliary verb cannot be other than the auxiliary verb used in the given sentence, 'being' cannot be used here respectively

To change the given sentence from active voice to passive voice, we need to rearrange the sentence structure and make the object of the active sentence the subject of the passive sentence.
The given sentence is: "Rain disrupted the last day's play between India and Sri Lanka."
The options provided are:
A: The last day's play of India and Sri Lanka was disrupted by rain.
B: India and Sri Lanka's play of the last day was disrupted by rain.
C: The last day's play between India and Sri Lanka was disrupted by rain.
D: The last day's play between India and Sri Lanka were disrupted by rain.
The correct answer is option C: The last day's play between India and Sri Lanka was disrupted by rain.
Explanation:
In the passive voice, the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence, and the verb is changed to its passive form.
Breaking it down:
- The subject of the active sentence is "rain".
- The verb is "disrupted".
- The object of the active sentence is "the last day's play between India and Sri Lanka".
In the passive voice:
- The subject of the passive sentence is "the last day's play between India and Sri Lanka".
- The verb is "was disrupted".
- The preposition "by" is used to indicate the doer of the action, which is "rain".
So, the correct passive voice sentence is "The last day's play between India and Sri Lanka was disrupted by rain."

Passive Voice: Changing Active Voice to Passive Voice
Introduction:
In English grammar, voice is used to describe the relationship between the subject and the verb in a sentence. In active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb, while in passive voice, the subject receives the action of the verb. To change active voice to passive voice, you need to follow certain rules.
Steps:
To change the given sentence from active voice to passive voice, follow these steps:
Step 1: Identify the subject, verb, and object in the active sentence.
Subject: I
Verb: have invited
Object: all of my friends
Step 2: Move the object to the beginning of the sentence, and add the preposition "by" after the verb.
All of my friends have been invited by me to my party.
Step 3: Change the verb form from active to passive.
Active verb: have invited
Passive verb: have been invited
Step 4: Add the auxiliary verb "been" before the passive verb.
All of my friends have been invited to my party.
Step 5: Identify the correct option from the given choices.
Correct option: (B) All of my friends have been invited to my party.
Explanation:
The correct option is (B) because it is in the passive voice and uses the correct form of the verb. Option (A) "are invited" is in the passive voice, but it is in the present tense, which does not match the tense of the original sentence. Option (C) "had been invited" is in the past perfect tense, which is not necessary in this context. Option (D) "were invited" is in the past tense, which does not match the tense of the original sentence.
Conclusion:
To change active voice to passive voice, you need to identify the subject, verb, and object in the sentence, move the object to the beginning of the sentence, change the verb form from active to passive, add the auxiliary verb "been" before the passive verb, and identify the correct option from the given choices.

Step 4: Add the auxiliary verb "been" before the passive verb.
All of my friends have been invited to my party.
Step 5: Identify the correct option from the given choices.
Correct option: (B) All of my friends have been invited to my party.
Explanation:
The correct option is (B) because it is in the passive voice and uses the correct form of the verb. Option (A) "are invited" is in the passive voice, but it is in the present tense, which does not match the tense of the original sentence. Option (C) "had been invited" is in the past perfect tense, which is not necessary in this context. Option (D) "were invited" is in the past tense, which does not match the tense of the original sentence.
Conclusion:
To change active voice to passive voice, you need to identify the subject, verb, and object in the sentence, move the object to the beginning of the sentence, change the verb form from active to passive, add the auxiliary verb "been" before the passive verb, and identify the correct option from the given choices.

Aaditya Nair answered |
Passive Voice: My mother cut the fruit.
To change this sentence into the passive voice, we need to focus on the object of the sentence, which is "the fruit." The subject of the sentence, "my mother," will become the agent in the passive voice.
The passive voice construction follows the pattern: subject + auxiliary verb (be) + past participle + by + agent.
In this case, "the fruit" will become the subject, and "my mother" will be the agent.
Now let's look at the options:
a) cut - This is the base form of the verb and cannot be used in the passive voice construction.
b) was cutting - This is the past continuous tense and does not fit the passive voice construction.
c) was cut - This is the correct option. "Was" is the auxiliary verb in the past tense, and "cut" is the past participle of the verb.
d) cutted - This is an incorrect form of the verb and does not fit the passive voice construction.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) was cut.

Explanation:
In this question, we are given a sentence in the active voice: "He teaches us Grammar." We are required to change this sentence into the passive voice.
To change a sentence from active to passive voice, we need to rearrange the sentence structure and change the verb form. In passive voice, the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence, and the verb is transformed into a passive form.
The correct passive form of the given sentence is: "We are taught Grammar by him."
Let's break down the options and understand why option 'D' is the correct answer:
a) We are being taught Grammar by him.
- This option is in the present continuous passive form. It suggests that the action of teaching is happening at the moment. However, the original sentence does not indicate that the teaching is happening right now. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
b) Grammar is being taught us by him.
- This option is not grammatically correct. The preposition "to" is missing before "us". Additionally, the word order is incorrect. In passive voice, the object should come before the verb. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
c) Grammar is taught to us by him.
- This option is also grammatically correct and conveys the same meaning as the original sentence. However, the word order is different from the original sentence. In the passive voice, the subject should come after the verb. Therefore, this option is not the best choice.
d) We are taught Grammar by him.
- This option is grammatically correct and maintains the correct word order. The subject "we" becomes the object, "Grammar" remains the subject, and the verb "teaches" is changed to "taught". Therefore, this is the correct answer.
In conclusion, option 'D' is the correct answer because it follows the rules of transforming the active sentence into the passive voice accurately.

Radha Iyer answered |
To change the given active sentence into the passive voice, we need to rearrange the sentence structure and use the appropriate verb form.
The active sentence is:
"The residents celebrated Independence Day."
Now, let's analyze the options provided and determine the correct passive voice conversion:
Option A: The Independence Day is celebrated by the residents.
- This option uses the present simple passive voice, but the original sentence is in the past tense. So, this option is incorrect.
Option B: The Independence Day was celebrated by the residents.
- This option correctly uses the past simple passive voice, indicating that the celebration of Independence Day happened in the past and the residents were the ones who celebrated it. Therefore, this is the correct passive voice conversion.
Option C: The Independence Day has been celebrated by the residents.
- This option uses the present perfect passive voice, but the original sentence is in the past tense. So, this option is incorrect.
Option D: Celebration of Independence Day was done by the residents.
- This option changes the sentence structure and uses the verb "done" instead of "celebrated." While it is grammatically correct, it does not maintain the same meaning as the original sentence. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Answer: The correct passive voice conversion of the given active sentence is Option B: The Independence Day was celebrated by the residents.

Radha Iyer answered |
To change the given sentence from active voice to passive voice, we need to identify the subject, verb, and object in the active sentence and then rearrange them in the passive voice.
Active Voice: They are cleaning the room.
Passive Voice: The room is being cleaned by them.
Now, let's break down the sentence and explain the process step by step:
Identify the subject, verb, and object:
- Subject: They
- Verb: are cleaning
- Object: the room
Rearrange the sentence in the passive voice:
- Object (the room) + Verb (is being cleaned) + Preposition (by) + Subject (them)
Final passive voice sentence: The room is being cleaned by them.
Explanation:
- The active sentence "They are cleaning the room" has been changed to the passive voice sentence "The room is being cleaned by them."
- In the passive voice, the object of the active sentence (the room) becomes the subject, the verb is changed to its passive form (is being cleaned), and the subject of the active sentence (they) is introduced using the preposition "by."
- The correct option in this case is option C: is being cleaned.

Avinash Patel answered |
To change the given sentence from active voice to passive voice, we need to focus on the following points:
1. Identify the subject, verb, and object in the active sentence.
- Subject: Mona
- Verb: was writing
- Object: a letter to her father
2. Make the object of the active sentence the subject of the passive sentence.
- A letter
3. Change the verb to its passive form. The passive form of "was writing" is "was being written".
4. Add the past participle of the verb "write" (written) after the verb "was being written".
5. Include the preposition "by" before the subject of the active sentence.
Now, let's analyze the given options:
A: A letter was written to her father by Mona.
- This option correctly changes the sentence to passive voice, but the verb form is incorrect. It should be "was being written" instead of "was written".
B: A letter has been written to her father by Mona.
- This option changes the tense of the sentence to present perfect passive voice, which is not required as the original sentence is in the past tense. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
C: A letter was being written by Mona to her father.
- This option correctly changes the sentence to passive voice, using the correct verb form "was being written". It also maintains the original tense of the sentence. Hence, this is the correct answer.
D: A letter was written by Mona to her father.
- This option changes the sentence to passive voice using the correct verb form "was written", but it changes the order of the prepositional phrase. The correct order should be "to her father by Mona". Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Answer: Option C
- A letter was being written by Mona to her father.

Explanation:
In passive voice, the subject of the active sentence becomes the object in the passive sentence, and the verb is changed to its passive form. The agent of the action (the person or thing performing the action) is usually introduced with the preposition "by."
In this sentence, the active form is "I support the plan." To change it into the passive voice, we follow these steps:
1. Identify the subject, verb, and object in the active sentence:
Subject: I
Verb: support
Object: the plan
2. Move the object of the active sentence to the subject position in the passive sentence:
The plan
3. Use the passive form of the verb "support" (which is "is supported"):
The plan is supported
4. Add the preposition "by" followed by the subject of the active sentence:
The plan is supported by me.
Therefore, the correct option is "b) is supported."

Conversion to Passive Voice
Explanation:
To convert a sentence from active voice to passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence, and the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence. The verb is also changed to its passive form.
Passive Voice Structure:
Subject + be verb (am/is/are/was/were) + past participle (3rd form of the verb) + by + agent (optional)
Now let's convert the given sentence into the passive voice.
Step 1: Identify the subject and object of the active sentence.
- Subject: Who

Step 2: Convert the object of the active sentence into the subject of the passive sentence.
- This mess
Step 3: Change the verb "is creating" to its passive form.
