Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice. Teachers love their students. |
Students are being loved by their teachers. Students are loved by their teachers. Students have been loved by their teachers. Students will be loved by their teachers. |
Students are loved by their teachers. |
In the active voice sentence, "Teachers love their students," the subject (teachers) performs the action (love) on the object (students). To convert the sentence to passive voice, we make the object (students) the subject of the sentence and use the verb "are loved" in the corresponding form. The agent or the doer of the action (teachers) is not mentioned explicitly in the passive voice. Therefore, the passive voice sentence is: "Students are loved by their teachers." The other options are incorrect:
Therefore, the correct option is: "Students are loved by their teachers." |
