Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Based on the rules for converting active voice to passive voice, the correct option is:
The goods can be being delivered tomorrow.
Explanation:
Active Voice Structure: The sentence "They can be delivering the goods tomorrow" is in the Modal Continuous form (Modal + be + V4).
Passive Voice Rule: To convert a continuous form into passive, we must include the word "being" followed by the past participle (V3) of the main verb.
Transformation:
Subject: "They" becomes the agent (often omitted).
Object: "The goods" becomes the new subject.
Verb: "can be delivering" changes to "can be being delivered."
