Question

Change the following from active to passive:
Will the authorities enforce the revised ordinance promptly?

A.

Will the revised ordinance be enforced promptly by the authorities?

B.

Will the revised ordinance being enforced promptly by the authorities?

C.

Will the revised ordinance have been enforced promptly by the authorities?

D.

Will the revised ordinance enforced promptly by the authorities?

Correct option is A

The correct passive voice of the given sentence is (a) Will the revised ordinance be enforced promptly by the authorities?
Explain the rules of conversion (Active → Passive) with structure:
Active structure: Will + Subject + V1 + Object + adverb
· Will + the authorities + enforce + the revised ordinance + promptly
· Passive structure: Will + Object + be + V3 + (by + Subject) + adverb
· Will + the revised ordinance + be enforced + by the authorities + promptly
· Example (rule used): Will the committee approve the proposal? → Will the proposal be approved by the committee?
· Why other options are incorrect:
· (b) being enforced is wrong after “will”; “will” requires be + V3, not “being.”
· (c) have been enforced changes tense to future perfect, which is not in the active sentence.
· (d) missing auxiliary be; passive cannot be formed without “be.”
