Choose the correct passive voice transformation of the sentence:
Who did you suspect was responsible for leaking the confidential information to the press?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The original sentence is in the past tense ('did you suspect'). To form the passive voice:
The object of the action ('Who') becomes the subject.
The verb phrase ('did suspect') is changed to 'was/were' + past participle ('was suspected').
The subject of the active sentence ('you') becomes part of a 'by' phrase ('by you').
