SSC Stenographer - 06 Aug 2025 - Shift 3 • English • Q120

Select the correct passive form of the given sentence.

"They serve food to the guests." 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Transformation from active to passive voice:

Active Voice Structure: Subject (They) + Verb (serve - Present Tense) + Object (food) + Prepositional Phrase (to the guests).

Passive Voice Rule: To change a simple present sentence into passive voice, use the structure: Object + is/am/are + Past Participle (V3) + by + Subject.

Correct Transformation: "Food" becomes the subject, "serve" changes to "is served," and the original subject "They" becomes the object "by them."

Passive voice: Food is served to the guests by them.
