Question

A sentence has been given in Active/Passive Voice. Out of the four given alternatives, select the one which best expresses the same sentence in Passive/Active Voice.
The officer cuts down the tree.
A) The tree is cut down by the officer. B) The tree got cut down by the officer. C) The tree is cut by the officer. D) The tree cut by the officer.

Answer 1

Answer:

the tree was cut down by the tree

Explanation:

The sentence is identified as active voice as the subject “officer” is doing the action of cutting which is verb, and tree is considered as object. In order to change the sentence in passive voice, the tree must be written as subject, and officer should be written as the object. Hence the sentence in the passive voice can be written as “The tree was cut down by the officer.”
