Question of The Day18-04-2020

Choose the most appropriate option to change the voice (active / passive) form of the given sentence.

Ranjana will bake a cake.

Answer

Correct Answer : d ) A cake will be baked by Ranjana.

Explanation :

The sentence is given in active voice, to convert it into passive voice, we will follow the following steps:

Active structure: Subject (Ranjana) + verb (will bake) + object (a cake)

Passive structure: Object (A cake) + change of verb accordingly (given below) + preposition(by) + subject (Ranjana)

The following rules are used:

In simple future tense, verb (will bake) will be changed as helping verb(will) + be + third form of verb(baked)

“will bake” changes to “will be baked”

Change in future simple tense goes as will/shall + be + third form of verb i.e. V3.

The correct passive voice of the sentence will be “A cake will be baked by Ranjana.”

Therefore, d is the correct answer.
