People say he has lived on liquid diet for years.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. He is said to have lived on liquid diet for years.
- In the passive voice, "People say" becomes "He is said" with "He" as the subject and "to have lived on a liquid diet for years" as the action described.
-
Change "say" to "is said" to fit the passive construction.
-
Include the article "a" before "liquid diet" for correct usage.
So, the passive form is: "He is said to have lived on a liquid diet for years."
