Answer 2

Answer:

How was the river crossed by you?

Explanation:

Structure of Active and Passive voice:

• Active voice: Subject + Verb + Object

• Passive voice: Object + Verb + Subject

Rules for changing Active voice to Passive voice:

1. 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.

For example:

• Active voice: She bought a new house.

(She is the subject and a new house is an object.)

• Passive voice: A new house was bought by her.

(A new house is a subject and her is the object.)

2. Always convert the main verb into its past participle or third form while converting from active to passive voice

For example:

First Form                              Second Form             Third Form

buy                                           bought                            bought

3. Use the word “by” before the subject in the passive sentence.

4. Change of tense of the auxiliary word. When we change the verb form of the main verb, the tense of the auxiliary also changes accordingly.

• Therefore,

                         How did you cross the river? (Active)

will change into

                  How was the river crossed by you? (Passive)
