SSC CGL 2023 PYQ — Question 9

SSC CGL - 14 July 2023 - Shift 4 • English • Q9

Describe how you will tell your parents that Mahesh and his team were helping the fire and rescue team in passive voice.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is The fire and rescue team was being helped by Mahesh and his team. i.e. option 2.

  • The sentence "The fire and rescue team was being helped by Mahesh and his team" uses passive voice to emphasize that Mahesh and his team were assisting the fire and rescue team.

  • The structure "was being helped" shifts the focus to the recipient of the action, and "by Mahesh and his team" identifies the doer without making them the primary focus of the sentence.
