Answer 2

Answer:

Complete sentences are : -

• (a) The boy at the desk is reading a book.

• (b) My younger brother went to Delhi yesterday.

Passive voices are :-

• (a) You are playing a match.

• A match is being played by you.

• (b) He reads a book.

• A book is read by him.

Explanation :

• Rearrange means we have to place the right words in coherent order. A sentence except interrogative always follows : Subject + verb + object. Above two sentences have followed this.

• First active voice is written in present continuous tense and second one is written in present indefinite tense.

• Structure of passive voice : Object of active voice turns into subject in passive voice + auxiliary verb + main verb + others + by + subject of active voice.

• Above two passive voices have followed this structure. 'Am, is, are' are auxiliary verbs of simple present tense in passive voice. In present continuous tense, 'am, is, are' are also auxiliary verbs but it takes 'being' after helping verb.
