SSC Stenographer - 17 Nov 2022 - Shift 3 • English • Q45

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice.

Somebody sent him a cheque for a hundred euros as his remuneration.
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. He was sent a cheque for a hundred euros as his remuneration by someone.

Somebody sent him a cheque for a hundred euros as his remuneration.

Object = him, Verb = sent, Subject = Somebody

Passive voice form: Object + Verb + Subject

The sentence in passive voice thus becomes: He (object) was sent (verb) a cheque for a hundred euros as his remuneration by someone (subject). 

Tip: In the passive voice too, the tense remains the same as in the active voice. 

Hence, He was sent a cheque for a hundred euros as his remuneration by someone is the correct answer.
