Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

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

Aditya passed the driving test quite easily.

Options:

The driving test had passed quite easily by Aditya.

The driving test have been passed quite easily by Aditya.

The driving test could passed quite easily by Aditya.

The driving test was passed quite easily by Aditya.

Correct Answer:

The driving test was passed quite easily by Aditya.

Explanation:

The correct passive form of the given sentence "Aditya passed the driving test quite easily" is The driving test was passed quite easily by Aditya.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • The driving test had passed quite easily by Aditya uses the past perfect tense, while the original sentence is in the simple past tense.
  • The driving test have been passed quite easily by Aditya uses the present perfect tense, which is not typically used for actions that happen once.
  • The driving test could passed quite easily by Aditya is grammatically incorrect. The modal verb "could" is used to express possibility, but it is not used correctly in the passive voice.
