In the following question, a sentence has been given in Active/Passive voice. Out of the four alternatives suggested, select the one which best expresses the same sentence in Passive/Active voice.

I always cook food in olive oil.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Food is always cooked by me in olive oil.

Active voice- Subject + V1/V5 + Object

Passive voice- Subject + is/am/are + V3 + by agent

  • An object must answer 'what' or 'whom'.
  • 'Food' answers 'what' and hence is the object of the active voice which changes into the subject of the passive voice.

As the chosen option follows the above structure it will be correct.
