Choose the option that is the passive form of the sentence.
The class teacher was taking the children to the zoo.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct option that is the passive form of the sentence is The children were being taken to the zoo by their class teacher.
The other options are incorrect because:
- The children will go to the zoo by their class teacher is in the future tense, while the original sentence is in the past tense.
- The children can be taking to the zoo by their class teacher is grammatically incorrect. The verb "to take" is followed by a direct object, but the phrase "can be taking" is not a direct object.
- The children being taken to the zoo by their class teacher is grammatically incorrect. The verb "to be" is followed by a past participle, but the word "being" is not a past participle.
