Question

Choose the option in which the given sentence has been changed into passive voice.
I wrote this book.

A.

This book had been written by me.

B.

This book has been written by me.

C.

This book was written by me.

D.

This book is being written by me.

Correct option is C

The correct active/passive voice of the given sentence is (c).
Explain the rules of conversion (Active → Passive) with structure.
· Simple Past Active: Subject + V2 + Object → “I wrote this book.”
· Simple Past Passive: Object + was/were + V3 (+ by + agent) → “This book was written by me.”
· Here “wrote” (V2) converts to “ was written” (was + V3). The object “this book” becomes the subject in the passive; the subject “I” becomes the agent “by me.”
· Structure:
· Active: I (S) + wrote (V2) + this book (O)
· Passive: This book (S) + was written (was + V3) + by me (Agent)
· Why other options are incorrect:
· (a) had been written = Past Perfect Passive, not Simple Past.
· (b) has been written = Present Perfect Passive, wrong tense.
· (d) is being written = Present Continuous Passive, wrong tense.
