Change the voice of the following sentence from the passive to Active…

The correct answer is Option (2) → The professor edited the essay.

• The sentence in the Passive Voice is: "The essay was edited by the professor."

  • Subject: The essay
  • Verb: was edited
  • Agent: by the professor

• To convert this into Active Voice, we make "the professor" (agent) the subject, "edited" (verb) remains unchanged, and "the essay" becomes the object.

Correct Active Voice Sentence:

"The professor edited the essay."

Other Options

1. "The professor found the essay and edited it."

   • Adds unnecessary information not present in the original sentence.

2. "The professor edited something which was the essay."

   • Awkward and redundant phrasing.

3. "The professor was edited by the essay."

   • Illogical and changes the meaning entirely.
