SSC CHSL - 24 Nov 2025 - Shift 1 • English • Q11

Choose the correct passive voice transformation of the sentence:

The old woman watered the plants every morning.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The sentence 'The old woman watered the plants every morning' is in the simple past tense, as indicated by the verb 'watered.' To convert this to passive voice, we use the structure: object + was/were + past participle + by + subject. Because 'the plants' is plural, the correct form of the verb 'to be' is 'were'.
