Choose the correct Active Voice form of the given sentence:
The flight announcement was being made by the staff when I entered.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Tense: The phrase "was being made" indicates the sentence is in the Past Continuous Tense (Passive).
Subject-Object: The "staff" (the subj.) move to the start of the sentence, and the "flight announcement" (the receiver) moves to the object position.
Verb Adjustment: The active voice formula for Past Continuous is: Subject + was/were + Verb-ing.
Since "staff" is treated as a collective singular noun here, use "was making."
Time Clause: The phrase "when I entered" remains unchanged as it just provides the time context.
