Choose the sentence in the active voice.a)The cake was baked by my sis...
Correct answer is option d. We know that an active voice does not have the word 'by' in them ( then it is passive voice). In options a, b and c there is the word 'by' in them. So option D is correct.
Choose the sentence in the active voice.a)The cake was baked by my sis...
The sentence in the active voice is:
d) The car was washed by the boy.
Explanation:
The active voice is a grammatical construction in which the subject of a sentence performs the action expressed by the verb. In this case, the subject is the doer of the action. Let's break down the given options and identify the active voice sentence:
a) The cake was baked by my sister.
- In this sentence, the subject "the cake" is receiving the action "baked" from the doer "my sister." This sentence is in the passive voice.
b) The dog was chased by the cat.
- In this sentence, the subject "the dog" is receiving the action "chased" from the doer "the cat." This sentence is also in the passive voice.
c) The children were helped by the teacher.
- Similarly, in this sentence, the subject "the children" is receiving the action "helped" from the doer "the teacher." This sentence is also in the passive voice.
d) The car was washed by the boy.
- In this sentence, the subject "the car" is receiving the action "washed" from the doer "the boy." This sentence is in the active voice.
Summary:
The sentence in option d) "The car was washed by the boy" is in the active voice because the subject "the car" is performing the action "washed" in this sentence. The other options a), b), and c) are in the passive voice where the subject is receiving the action rather than performing it.
