somebody stole my shoes from the temple. ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Passive Voice - My shoes were stolen from the temple by someone .

How To change voice ?

Active voice: Subject + Verb + Object

Passive voice: Object + Verb + Subject

• You must have seen that the verb form changes when you switch from active to passive voice.

• Now verbs used are of two kinds: the main and the auxiliary verbs.

• Usually, an auxiliary verb is accompanied by the main verb.

• The auxiliary verb like be, do or have shows the tense or mood of the verb.

For example :

• in the sentence “I have finished my scuba diving course in the Havelock Islands”, finished is the main verb and have is the auxiliary verb.

• As a thumb rule, Passive voice sentences always take the third form of the verb also called the past participle form of the verb .

• Notice this being used in the sentence above in the table: “The strawberry pie was eaten by me.”

Rules for changing Active voice to Passive voice:

• Simply exchange the places of the subject and the object. The subject should become the object and vice-e-versa while changing a sentence from Active to Passive voice or reverse.

Active voice: She bought a new car. (She is the subject and a new car is an object.)

Passive voice: A new car was bought by her. (A new car is a subject and her is the object.)

• A verb is said to be in the active voice when the subject of the verb is the doer of the action or acts or is active
• A verb is said to be in the Passive voice when the subject of the verb doesn't act but receives the action by someone or something.

Changing Sentence from Active to Passive voice:-

Active :- Sheela writes letter

Passive:- A letter is written by Sheela.

Note how the form has changed:-

1. The Object of the Verb in Active Voice (a letter) becomes the Subject of the Verb in the passive voice
2. The Subject in the Active Voice (Sheela) becomes the Object of the Verb in the Passive voice.And the Preposition by has been used before it.
3. An appropriate form of the Verb to be (is) has been used followed by the Third form(Past Participle) of the Verb (write)
