Change the voice of the given sentence.
You can take one casual leave per month.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. One casual leave per month can be taken.

Given Sentence (Active Voice): "You can take one casual leave per month."

Structure of the Active Sentence:

  • Subject: You

  • Modal verb + main verb: can take

  • Object: one casual leave per month

Passive Voice Rule (for modal verbs):

Modal + be + past participle (V3)
So, "can take" becomes "can be taken"

Conversion:

  • Object of active becomes subject of passive: One casual leave per month

  • Apply passive rule: can be taken

  • Subject "you" is often omitted in passive if general

Final Sentence (Passive Voice): One casual leave per month can be taken.

Hence, the chosen option will be correct.
