SSC CGL 2024 PYQ — Question 14

SSC CGL - 12 Sep 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q14

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice

Someone has taken my secret diary.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. My secret diary has been taken by someone.

The object of the active voice i.e."my secret diary" becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The verb tense i.e. "has taken" is converted to "has been taken" to match the present perfect tense(has/have+been+V3 form of the verb) in passive construction.

The subject i.e. "someone" remains the same. 

Hence, the correct passive voice transformation is- "My secret diary has been taken."
