Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Select the correct passive form of the given sentence.

This android can perform all the programmes perfectly well.

Options:

All the programmes could have been performed perfectly well by this android.

All the programmes can have been performed perfectly well by this android.

All the programmes can be performed perfectly well by this android.

All the programmes could be performed perfectly well by this android.

Correct Answer:

All the programmes can be performed perfectly well by this android.

Explanation:

The correct passive form of the given sentence is All the programmes can be performed perfectly well by this android.

Here's a breakdown of why this is the best option:

Active Voice:  The original sentence is in the active voice, where the subject (this android) performs the action (can perform).
Passive Voice: We want to convert it to the passive voice, where the focus shifts to the object (all the programmes).
Verb Change: In the passive voice, the verb is modified.  "Can perform" becomes "can be performed" to reflect the change in subject.
