Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. A webinar on investment will be organised by Professor Sehgal tomorrow.

  • The above sentence is in an 'active voice form', hence we need to convert it into a 'passive voice form'.
  • In an active voice, a sentence emphasizes the subject, acting.
  • In a passive voice, a sentence emphasizes the action or the object of the sentence.
  • The sentence is in the active voice 'Professor Sehgal' is the subject and 'a webinar' is the object.
  • When we convert this sentence into passive voice, the subject 'Professor Sehgal' of the active voice becomes the object, and the object 'a webinar' becomes the subject.
  • Let's have a look at the structural form of the given rule:
    • ​Subject + will/shall + V1 + object. (active voice)
    • object + will/shall + be+ V3 + by + subject. (passive voice)
  • This is the active and passive voice rule for the future simple tense.​​
  • Therefore, as per the points mentioned above, we find that ‘A webinar on investment will be organised by Professor Sehgal tomorrow’ is the correct passive form of the given sentence.
