SSC MTS 2026 PYQ — Question 83

SSC MTS - 12 Feb 2026 - Shift 2 • English • Q83

Which of the following options is the most suitable conversion of the following sentence into active voice?
By whom will the new office be inaugurated?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

To convert a sentence starting with "By whom" (passive) into active voice:

Replace "By whom" with "Who": In active voice, the interrogative pronoun "Who" acts as the subject performing the action.

Adjust the Verb: The passive form "will be inaugurated" (Future Simple Passive) changes to the active form "will inaugurate" (Future Simple Active).

Position the Object: "The new office," which was the subject in the passive sentence, becomes the object in the active sentence.

Active Voice Structure: Who + will + verb (base form) + object?

Option ‘B’ follows all these changes.
