Select the correct active form.
"Was the novel written by her?"
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Transformation from passive to active voice:
Identify the Tense: The original sentence is in the Passive Voice of the Simple Past tense (indicated by "Was" + past participle "written").
Identify the Subject and Object: In the passive sentence, "the novel" is the object receiving the action, and "her" (which becomes "she" in the active voice) is the subject performing the action.
Active Voice Rule: For a question in the Simple Past, the active structure is: Did + Subject + Base Verb + Object?
Active voice: Did she write the novel?
