Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Select the correct passive form of the given sentence.

His elder sister taught him English.

Options:

His elder sister is taught English by him.

He has been taught English by his elder sister.

He was taught English by his elder sister.

He is being taught English by his elder sister.

Correct Answer:

He was taught English by his elder sister.

Explanation:

The correct passive form of the given sentence is OPTION 3 - He was taught English by his elder sister.

The original sentence is in the simple past tense ("taught").
In the passive voice, the object of the active verb becomes the subject. In this case, "him" becomes "he."
The verb "taught" in the passive voice becomes "was taught" (using the appropriate form of "to be" for the simple past tense).
The subject of the active verb ("His elder sister") becomes the object of the preposition "by" in the passive voice.
"English" remains the same as the indirect object.
