Select the correct active form of the given sentence.
The building was surrounded by special commandos.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Special commandos surrounded the building.
- In the active voice, the subject ("Special commandos") comes before the verb ("surrounded"), and the object ("the building") follows the verb.
-
The verb "was surrounded" in the passive voice changes to "surrounded" in the active voice, using the base form to directly link the subject with the action.
So, the correct active form is: "Special commandos surrounded the building."
