Correct answer: A
Explanation
To convert a sentence from active to passive voice, we follow these steps:
Identify the Subject, Verb, and Object:
Subject: The street musician
Verb: is playing (Present Continuous Tense)
Object: A haunting tune
Move the Object to the Subject position: "A haunting tune..."
Change the Verb to Passive Form:
For the Present Continuous Tense the passive structure is:
Is/Am/Are + being + V3
"is playing" becomes "is being played".
Add the original Subject with "by": "...by the street musician."
