Question 8

Choose the option that is the correct active/passive form of the sentence.

The catch should not be dropped.

A
Have you dropped the catch?

B
Let the catch not be dropped.

C
You would not drop the catch.

D
Don’t drop the catch.

Solution

An imperative sentence does not normally have a subject. It is used to express a command or request. The imperative sentence in the active and passive voice takes the following form:

V₁ + Object.

Object + should be + V₃.

Example: Help the needy. (Active Voice)

Active form: 'Don’t drop the catch.'
Question 9
1 / -0.33

Choose the option that is the correct active/passive form of the sentence.

They found her guilty of theft.

A
She found them guilty of theft.

B
She was found guilty of theft.

C
She had been ﬁnd guilty of theft.

D
She is ﬁnd guilty of theft by them.
Solution
The voice of a verb tells whether the subject of the sentence performs or receives the action.

In active voice, the subject (agent) acts upon the verb; while in passive, the verb acts upon the subject (agent).

Rules of Conversion from Active to Passive Voice:
- Identify the subject, the verb and the object: S+V+O.
- Change the object into subject.
- Put the suitable helping verb or auxiliary verb.
- Change the verb into past participle of the verb.
- Add the preposition "by“.
- Change the subject into object.
Option (B) follows all the proper conversion rules.

The correct answer is: She was found guilty of theft.
Question 10
1 / -0.33

Choose the option that is the correct active/passive form of the sentence.

The security guard opened the gate using his pass.

The gate is open by the security guard by using his pass.

B
The gate was opened by the security guard using his pass.

C
The gate opened the security guard using his pass.

D

Solution

The following steps are required to change the given sentence into passive voice:

The subject 'the security guard' of the active voice will become the object of the passive voice.

The object 'the gate' of the active voice will become the subject of the passive voice.

The tense (simple past tense) will change according to the following structure:-

Active Voice - Subject + did + V₁ or V₂ + Object.

Passive Voice - Object + was/were + V₃ + by + Object.

Thus, 'opened' will be converted to 'was opened'.

The correct answer is: The gate was opened by the security guard using his pass.
