SSC CGL 2020 PYQ — Question 64

SSC CGL Tier II - English - 16th Nov 2020 • English • Q64

Select the correct active form of the given sentence.

Your lunch box has been packed by mother.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Mother has packed your lunch box.

Passive form: Your lunch box has been packed by mother.

  • In the given sentence, 'has + been + V3 i.e. packed' has been used, which implies that the active form should contain 'has/have + V3 i.e. packed'.
  • 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.
  • Remove the word 'by' when converting into active form.
  • Lastly, as "Mother" is a singular subject, therefore, 'has' will be used.

The active form will be: Mother has packed your lunch box.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Mother has packed your lunch box.
