Question

Change the following sentence from Active Voice to Passive Voice.
They will start the fireworks after midnight.

A.

The fireworks are going to be started after midnight by them.

B.

The fireworks will be started by them after midnight.

C.

After midnight the fireworks will be started.

D.

Starting of the fireworks will be done after midnight by them.

Correct option is B


Correct passive voice: (b) The fireworks will be started by them after midnight.
Definition (Active Voice):
Active Voice → The subject does the action. (Hindi: कर्ता कार्य करता है)
• Example: They will start the fireworks.
Definition (Passive Voice):
Passive Voice → The subject receives the action (object of active becomes subject). (Hindi: कर्म पर क्रिया होती है)
• Example: The fireworks will be started (by them).
Step-by-step conversion (in detail):
• Active sentence parts: They (Subject) + will start (Simple Future) + the fireworks (Object) + after midnight (time phrase)
• Make the object the new subject: the fireworks
• Identify tense: will + V¹ = Simple Future
• Simple Future Passive structure: will be + V³
• start (V¹) → started (V³)
• Add agent with by: by them (optional in meaning, but kept in exam-standard conversion)
• Keep time phrase at the end: after midnight
Grammatical rule (English):
• Active: S + will + V¹ + O
• Passive: O + will be + V³ + by + S
व्याकरणिक नियम (Hindi):
• Future passive की रचना: Object + will be + V³ + by + Subject
Why other options are incorrect:
• (a) “are going to be started” → tense/style changed (will → going to).
• (c) agent missing; also word order is less standard for direct conversion.
• (d) “starting of…” awkward and not the correct passive transformation style for exams.
Hence, option (b) is the correct answer.
