Back to paper

Select the correct passive form of the given sentence.

They are providing shelter to the homeless

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. The homeless are being provided shelter.

  • In passive voice, the object of the active sentence ("the homeless") becomes the subject of the passive sentence.

  • Change "are providing" to "are being provided" to fit the passive construction. The verb "provide" is converted to "being provided" in the passive voice.

  •  The object "shelter" remains as it is but follows the passive construction.

So, the passive form is: "The homeless are being provided shelter."
