SSC Stenographer - 08 Aug 2025 - Shift 2 • English • Q121

Select the correct active form of the given sentence.

"The homework is being checked by the teacher."

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The sentence "The teacher is checking the homework" is the correct active form of the passive sentence "The homework is being checked by the teacher."

Tense Consistency: The original passive sentence uses the present continuous tense ("is being checked"). To maintain this, the active voice must also be in the present continuous ("is checking").

Subject-Object Swap: In the active voice, the performer of the action (the teacher) becomes the subject, and the receiver (the homework) becomes the object.
