8. A bag was carried by every child.
9. A poisonous snake was killed by the farmer.
10. Five golden were laid by the hen.
Explanation:
- An active voice is a narrative technique where the action verb follows the subject and performs the action directly.
- In the passive voice the object shifts to the position of the subject and the action verb is replaced by its past participle preceded by an auxiliary verb.
- Thus in the sentence, 'The mother has not cooked food for the children.' which is in the active voice, the subject 'my mother' shifts to the end and the verb changes to 'has not been cooked '.
- Similarly in the sentence, ' Every child carried a bag', the passive voice becomes , ' A bag was carried by every child.'
- In the sentence, 'The farmer killed a poisonous snake' ,the subject 'the farmer' goes to the end as, ' A poisonous snake was killed by the farmer.'
- Similarly the last sentence, 'The hen laid five golden eggs.' changes to 'Five golden were laid by the hen.'
