Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Nobody is trusted by him.
To convert the given sentence into its passive form, the following rules are followed:
-
Identify the subject and object of the active sentence:
- Subject: He
- Object: anybody
-
Make the object of the active sentence the subject of the passive sentence:
- Object "anybody" becomes the subject "Nobody."
-
Change the verb "trust" into its passive form "is trusted."
-
The subject "He" of the active sentence becomes "by him" in the passive sentence to indicate the doer of the action.
-
Include the appropriate auxiliary verb "is" to create the passive construction.
Thus, the correct passive form of the given sentence is:
Nobody is trusted by him.
