The PM has announced a very large economic relief package for the country.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. A very large economic relief package for the country has been announced by the PM.

  • The subject is "The PM," the verb is "has announced," and the object is "a very large economic relief package for the country." To transform this sentence into the passive voice, we move the object to the subject position, making the new subject "A very large economic relief package for the country."
  • The verb "announce" in the present perfect tense becomes "has been announced."
  • We move the original subject "The PM" to the end of the sentence, preceded by the preposition "by" to indicate the doer of the action.
  • Sentence in passive voice "A very large economic relief package for the country has been announced by the PM."
