Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Change the voice of the following sentence from Active to Passive.


"The committee will announce the results tomorrow."

 

Options:

 The results are announced by the committee tomorrow.

The results will be announced by the committee tomorrow.

The results have been announced by the committee.

 The committee announced the results tomorrow.

 

Correct Answer:

The results will be announced by the committee tomorrow.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) - The results will be announced by the committee tomorrow.
Here, the active voice is in the future tense ("will announce"). In passive voice, we need to keep the future tense intact. Thus, it becomes "The results will be announced by the committee tomorrow."

  • Active Voice: Subject (The committee) + will announce (verb) + object (the results).
  • Passive Voice: Object (the results) + will be announced (future passive form) + by subject (the committee).*****
