Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice.
Mr. Thomas helps Mr. Anil.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Mr. Anil is helped by Mr. Thomas.
The original sentence 'Mr. Thomas helps Mr. Anil' is in the simple present tense.
In passive voice, the object 'Mr. Anil' becomes the subject, and the verb 'helps' changes to the passive form 'is helped.'
Option 3 correctly uses the simple present passive tense: 'is helped.'
Option 1 and 4 use past tense ('was being helped' and 'was helped'), which do not match the present tense of the original sentence.
Option 2 uses present continuous passive ('is being helped'), which changes the tense and meaning.
