From the given alternatives, choose the one which best expresses the sentence in Active/Passive voice. |
The manager on duty was spoken to by her The manager was spoken to by her on duty She was spoken to by the manager on duty She was the manager to be spoken to on duty |
The manager on duty was spoken to by her |
The correct answer is The manager on duty was spoken to by her. The original sentence is in active voice, with the subject "she" and the verb "spoke". To change it to passive voice, we make the object of the active sentence, "manager on duty", the subject of the passive sentence. The verb "spoke" becomes "was spoken to", and we add the preposition "by" to show who is doing the action. This gives us the passive voice sentence "The manager on duty was spoken to by her". The other options are incorrect.
