Choose the correct passive voice transformation of the sentence:
Why do they always make such a big fuss about trivial matters?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The original sentence, 'Why do they always make such a big fuss about trivial matters?' is in the simple present tense. To transform an active voice question in the simple present tense into the passive voice, the structure must maintain the question format and the tense.
The use of 'do' indicates the simple present tense.
'Such a big fuss' is the object that becomes the subject in the passive voice.
In passive voice the structure should be 'is/am/are' + past participle.
Option A follows all these rules:
'Why is such a big fuss always made about trivial matters?'
