Change the voice of the following sentence from active to passive:

"I opened the window"

Choose the most appropriate option:

The window was opened by me.

The correct answer is Option (4) → The window was opened by me.

• Active Voice:

  • Subject: "I"
  • Verb: "opened"
  • Object: "the window"

• Passive Voice Construction:

  • The object of the active sentence ("the window") becomes the subject of the passive sentence.
  • The verb "opened" changes to its passive form: "was opened."
  • The subject of the active sentence ("I") becomes the agent in the passive voice, introduced by "by."

  Passive Sentence: "The window was opened by me."

• Why the other options are incorrect:

  • Option 1: "I was the one who opened the window" → Retains the active voice structure.
  • Option 2: "The window was opened and I did it" → Adds unnecessary information, deviating from the original structure.
  • Option 3: "The window was by I" → Grammatically incorrect and lacks the verb "opened."
