Select the correct active voice of the given sentence.
The watchman has been bitten by a stray dog
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. A stray dog has bitten the watchman.
The subject of the passive voice will become an object in the active voice of the sentence.
- The structure of the given passive voice is: Object + has/have been+ V3+ by + Subject
- The structure of the active voice is: Subject + have/has + V3 + Object
- While converting a passive voice of the present perfect tense into an active voice, we do not use a past participle.
- Thus, been will be removed from the sentence.
Thus, the correct form of an active voice sentence is:
A stray dog has bitten the watchman.
