Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice.

Do you trust me?

Options:

Am I trusted by you?

Do I am trusted by you?

Do I was trusted by you?

I am trusted by you.

Correct Answer:

Am I trusted by you?

Explanation:

The correct passive voice form of the sentence "Do you trust me?" is Am I trusted by you?

The active voice of the sentence is "Do you trust me?" This sentence asks if the speaker is trusted by the listener. The passive voice of the sentence is formed by putting the subject of the active sentence after the verb "to be" and the past participle of the main verb. In this case, the subject of the active sentence is "I" and the main verb is "trust." The past participle of "trust" is "trusted." So, the passive form of the sentence is "Am I trusted by you?"

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Do I am trusted by you? This sentence is grammatically incorrect. The correct way to form the passive voice is to use the verb "to be" and the past participle of the main verb.
  • Do I was trusted by you? This sentence is grammatically incorrect. The past tense of the verb "to be" is "was" or "were." In this case, the subject of the sentence is "I," which is singular. Therefore, the correct past tense form of the verb is "was."
  • I am trusted by you. This sentence is in the active voice, not the passive voice. The passive voice is formed by putting the subject of the active sentence after the verb "to be" and the past participle of the main verb. In this case, the subject of the sentence is "I," and the main verb is "trust." The past participle of "trust" is "trusted." So, the passive form of the sentence would be "Am I trusted by you?"
