SSC MTS - 19 Feb 2026 - Shift 3 • English • Q80

Which of the following options is the most suitable conversion of the following sentence into Passive Voice?

Didn't you keep the heavy box in the attic?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

To convert an interrogative sentence from active to passive voice, follow these steps:

Identify the Subject, Verb, and Object:

Active: "Didn't you (subject) keep (verb) the heavy box (object) in the attic?"

Swap the Subject and Object:

The object "the heavy box" becomes the new subject.

Adjust the Auxiliary Verb:

The original sentence is in the Simple Past Tense ("Didn't").

In the passive voice, the Simple Past uses was/were + past participle.

Since "the heavy box" is singular, we use "Wasn't."

Use the Past Participle of the Main Verb:

The past participle of "keep" is "kept."

Option ‘A’ implements all these changes.
