Choose the correct passive voice transformation of the sentence: People eat rice in many countries.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The original sentence, 'People eat rice in many countries,' is in the simple present tense. To transform it into the passive voice, the object ('Rice') becomes the subject, the verb tense remains the simple present (using 'is' as the auxiliary verb), and the main verb is changed to its past participle form ('eaten'). The agent ('people') is general and can be omitted in the passive voice.
