Choose the correct active voice form of the sentence:
"The editorial is written by Mamatha."
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Change from Passive to active voice:
Subject and Object Swap: In the active voice, the doer of the action (Mamatha) becomes the subject, and the receiver (the editorial) becomes the object.
Verb Tense Consistency: The original passive sentence is in the Simple Present Tense ("is written"). To maintain the same tense in the active voice, the base form of the verb "write" must be used. Since the subject "Mamatha" is third-person singular, the verb becomes "writes".
Active voice: Mamatha writes the editorial.
