Instructions

In the following question, convert the type of voice from active to passive or vice versa.

Question 3

Active: The teacher had been correcting the papers before the power went out.

Which is the correct passive form?

Solution

Share

When converting a sentence from the active to the passive form, the subject becomes the object and vice versa. The tense structure of past perfect continuous (had-been-verbing) will change to (had-been-being-past participle-by-subject). Therefore, the correct form of the sentence in passive form will be: The papers had been being corrected by the teacher before the power went out.
