Change the following sentence from active to passive:
The supervisor would have been checking the report drafts overnight.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Correct Answer: The report drafts would have been being checked overnight by the supervisor.
Explanation
• The given sentence is in the active voice using the modal perfect continuous tense (would have been + V-ing).
• The active voice structure is: Subject + would + have + been + V1-ing + Object.
• The passive voice structure is: Object + would + have + been + being + V3 (past participle) + by + Subject.
• Applying this structure: 'The report drafts' becomes the subject, followed by 'would have been being checked', and finally 'by the supervisor'.
