Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Choose the appropriate Passive Voice of the given sentence.

She is to write a letter.

Options:

A letter is being written by her.

A letter is to be written by her.

A letter was written by him.

A letter is written by her.

Correct Answer:

A letter is to be written by her.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) - A letter is to be written by her.

  • The original sentence "She is to write a letter" implies an expectation or scheduled task for her to write a letter.
  • In converting to passive voice, the object "a letter" becomes the subject.
  • The structure "is to write" converts into "is to be written" when changing from active to passive voice.
  • Finally, "by her" indicates who is expected to perform the action.
  • Therefore, the complete passive sentence is: "A letter is to be written by her."
