Question 885

In the question a sentence has been given in active/passive voice. Out of the given four alternatives, suggest the one which best expresses the given sentence in passive/active voice. Assam grows fine quality rice.

Answer

Fine quality rice is grown in Assam

Why?

The sentence is in active voice where the verb expresses the action of subject upon object. Thus to convert it into passive voice: Object + Helping Verb + Verb 3rd Form + By + Subject The object 'fine quality rice' should be written before the subject 'Assam' and the correct verb to be written here is 'grown Thus option 3 is the correct answer. Active voice: Subject+V1+Object Passive Voice: Object +is/am/are+V3 + Subject
