Answer:

The correct answer in passive voice is:

A book was given to him on his birthday by me.

Explanation:

When an action of the verb is performed by the subject, the voice of the sentence is said to be Active.

Example: Alex hit the ball.

Here, the subject is Alex and he is performing the verb on the object, i.e. hitting the ball.

When the subject of the sentence is being a acted upon by the verb or in simple words, when the subject if received the action of the verb, the voice of the sentence is said to be Passive.

Example: The ball was hit by Alex.

Here, the subject is Alex, who is the receiver of the action of the verb i.e. the ball being hit.

In order to change the voice of a sentence from active to passive,

1. Shift the object of the Active Voice into the subject's place.

2. Place the subject of the Active Voice at the end, followed by a 'by'

3. Add the correct form of the auxiliary verb and make it the main verb.

In the sentence, 'I gave him a book for his birthday' the subject, verb and objects are I, Gave and Book respectively.

Using the above method, the Passive Voice of the sentence will be,

A book was given to him on his birthday by me.
