Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Choose the appropriate passive form of the following sentence:

All his friends laughed at him.

Options:

He was laugh by all his friends.

He is laugh at by his friends.

He is laughed by all his friends.

He was laughed at by all his friends.

Correct Answer:

He was laughed at by all his friends.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (4) - He was laughed at by all his friends.

 

  • The subject in the active voice ("All his friends") becomes the agent in the passive voice.
  • The verb "laughed" changes to "was laughed at," and the object "him" becomes the subject of the passive sentence ("He").
  • The correct structure is: Subject + was/were + past participle + by + agent.
