Choose the correct Active Voice form of the given sentence:
The call was being made by Shyam.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Tense: The phrase "was being made" indicates the sentence is in the Past Continuous Tense (Passive).
Subject-Object: "Shyam" (the Subj.) moves to the start of the sentence, and "the call" (the object) moves to the end.
Verb Adjustment: The active voice formula for Past Continuous is: Subject + was/were + Verb-ing.
Since "Shyam" is singular, we use "was making."
A) Shyam makes the call: This is Simple Present tense.
C) Shyam made the call: This is Simple Past tense.
D) The call made Shyam: This changes the meaning entirely and is logically incorrect.
