Fill in the blank by choosing the best option for [3]:

A
has called

B
have called

C
has been called

D
none of the above

Solution

A sentence is in active voice when the subject is the doer of the action.
A sentence is in passive voice when the new subject (object in active voice) is the receiver of that action.
The given sentence "All the members are informed that an urgent meeting of the society..." is in passive voice, as the subject "urgent meeting of the society" is the receiver of an action.
Option C: 'Has been called' is in passive voice. It indicates that the subject, "an urgent meeting" receives the action 'has been called'. Hence option C is correct.
Options A and B are both in active voice, where 'has called' refers to a singular subject and 'have called' refers to a plural subject. They are used when the subject performs the action. But here, the subject 'meeting' cannot perform the action 'to call'. Hence, the sentence is not in active voice, and A and B are incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in C.
Question 5
1 / -0

Read the given notice carefully and replace the underlined words/phrases with the correct option given:

3_______

A
In the principal's office

B
On the principal's office

C
At the principal's office

D
Venue: The principal's office

Solution

Part (2) refers to the venue of the meeting.
After the semi-colon in the 1st line, the use of prepositional phrase 'at principal office' is incorrect. The correct way of writing the 1st line, the date and venue would be:
The office bearers of the Science society are requested to attend a meeting with the principal.
Date: 17 September, 20XX
Venue: The principal's office.
Hence, option D is the correct way of replacing part (3).
Options A, B and C are incorrect as they are all prepositional phrases.
