SSC CHSL 2025 PYQ — Question 12

SSC CHSL - 19 Nov 2025 - Shift 1 • English • Q12

Change the following sentence into the Active form.
The painting could not be exhibited without being restored first.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The original sentence is in the passive voice, using the structure "could not be exhibited" and "being restored". To change it to the active voice, a subject (in this case, "They") must perform the action. Option A correctly transforms the sentence by making "They" the subject performing the action of "exhibiting the painting" and "restoring it".
