Select the correct passive form of the given sentence.
Who tore the window curtains ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
To change a question starting with "Who" from active to passive voice, we follow these specific rules:
Identify the Tense: The word "tore" is the simple past form () of the verb "tear." Therefore, the sentence is in the Simple Past Tense.
The "Who" Rule: In the passive voice, the interrogative pronoun "Who" usually changes to "By whom" at the start of the sentence.
Auxiliary Verb: Since the object "the window curtains" is plural, we use the auxiliary verb "were" for the Simple Past passive.
