Select the correct active form of the given sentence.

Was your bag left in the bus?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Did you leave your bag in the bus?

Passive form: Was your bag left in the bus?

We need to follow these instructions while changing the voice of an interrogative sentence.

  • The inverted form of the verb i.e. 'Did' will commence the sentence.
  • Now, simply exchange the places of the subject and the object. The subject should become the object and vice-versa while changing a sentence from Active to Passive voice or reverse.
  • The given sentence is in the simple past tense.
  • The active voice form for the simple past interrogative sentence: Helping verb (Did) + subject + V1+ object?

The active form will be: Did you leave your bag in the bus?

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Did you leave your bag in the bus?
