Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice.
People say Shyam is wise and honest.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. It is said that Shyam is wise and honest.
It is because the object is changed into the subject while converting a sentence from an active voice to a passive one.
So, "people" now become the object and the "Shyam" the subject. But because the entity that talked about Shyam is indefinite, we will use "IT". 'Wise and Honest' stay as it is because they are his qualities and can not be changed.
Moreover, the verb of the active sentence should be turned into the past participle form while converting the sentence into the passive form. Therefore, "say" becomes "said".
