Select the correct active form of the given sentence.
Was the message given by him?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct active form of the given sentence is:
☀ Did he give the message?
So, the correct active form is: "Did he give the message?"
The other options and their explanations:
☀ Was he given the message?
- This option keeps the same meaning as the original sentence, but it is still in the passive voice, not the active voice.
☀ Does he give the message?
- This option is in the present simple tense, which does not match the past tense used in the original sentence.
☀ Did he gave the message?
- This option contains a grammatical error. In questions with "did," the main verb should be in its base form (infinitive) without the "-ed" ending. The correct form is "Did he give the message?"
