SSC CPO Tier II - 8 Jan 2024 • English • Q39

Select the correct active form of the given sentence.

By whom have these facts been verified?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Who has verified these facts?

  • The correct active form is "Who has verified these facts?" because it correctly shifts the focus from the passive construction to an active one.
  • In the passive form, "By whom have these facts been verified?" the verb "have been verified" is in the present perfect tense.
  • To convert this to active voice, we use the present perfect form "has verified" with the subject "who" to indicate the person performing the action.
