    What will be the passive form of 'I write a book'?
    Question

    What will be the passive form of 'I write a book'?

    A.

    I wrote a book.

    B.

    A book was written by me.

    C.

    A book will be written by me.

    D.

    A book is written by me.

    Correct option is D

    Explanation:

    The correct answer is D. A book is written by me.

    In passive voice, the object of an active sentence becomes the subject.

    In the case of the sentence "I write a book," the object "a book" becomes the subject in the passive form, and the verb "write" is transformed into "is written" to indicate the present tense.

    The correct construction for a present simple verb in passive voice is: "Subject + am/are/is + past participle."

    Information Booster:

    Active voice: The subject performs the action. For example: "I write a book."

    Passive voice: The subject receives the action. The object becomes the subject, and the verb form changes to reflect this. The passive form of "I write a book" is "A book is written by me."

    Passive voice is often used when the focus is on the action or the recipient of the action, rather than the person performing the action.

    Additional Knowledge:

    I wrote a book is incorrect because it is in the past tense, whereas the original sentence is in the present tense.

    A book was written by me is incorrect because it is in the past tense.

    A book will be written by me is incorrect because it is in the future tense.
