Answer 2

The voice of these sentences are changed as follows:

Answers:

1. Balu was elected captain.

2. He was seen opening the box.

3. His words must be listened to.

4. Who broke this jug?

5. Will those happy days ever be forgotten by me?

• In the first sentence, the subject is 'we' which carries out an action 'elected'. Therefore, when we change it into passive voice, the subject will become object and the object will become subject.

• We do not use 'by + subject' here in the first sentence, because it is not clear who is the agent.

• The second sentence is in the form of past tense. Here, subject 'I' changes into 'he' and 'saw' changes into its past participle form, that is, 'seen'.

• In the third sentence, 'We' is the subject carrying out the action 'listen'. Therefore, while changing it into passive form, the subject becomes object and the object becomes subject. The word 'by + subject' is not added as it is not clear who the agent is.

• In the fourth sentence, the subject is 'jug' carrying out the action 'broken'. So while transforming the voice, the object becomes the subject and vice versa. As the sentence is in interrogative form, so even after changing into passive voice the interrogative form is retained.

• In the fifth sentence, subject replaces object and object replaces subject. And the interrogative form is retained.
