PASSIVE VOICE
STRUCTURE OF SENTENCES
The sentences in Active voice and
Passive voice are different from each other
in many ways.
They also differ in their structure. Let us
see the differentiation in their structure.
ACTIVE VOICE
The structure of Active voice is :
Subject + Verb + Object
(SVO)
TYPE - I
The verb is along with –ing
form (or) comes alone.
ACTIVE VOICE
(Eg) : He is writing a letter.
Subject : He
Verb : is writing
Object : a letter
TYPE - II
The verb in the sentence is
auxiliary verb.
ACTIVE VOICE
(Eg) : She is Sita.
Subject : She
Verb : is
Object : Sita
PASSIVE VOICE
The structure of Passive voice is :
Object + Verb (V3) + Subject
(OVS)
TYPE - I
The V3 form of the verb in the sentence
changes when the sentence is converted
into Passive from Active.
PASSIVE VOICE
Base Sentence : He wrote a letter.
(Eg) : The letter was written by him.
Object : The letter
Verb : was written (V3)
Subject : by him
TYPE - II
The V3 form of the verb in the sentence does
not change even when the sentence is
converted into Passive from Active.
PASSIVE VOICE
(Eg) : I read a book. = Active
A book was read by me. = Passive
•The base verb in both cases is ‘read’.
•It remains same, in both the cases.
Convert the following into Passive voice :
1. He read a novel.
2. He does not obey his teachers.
3. Why do you waste time ?
4. Who teaches you English ?
5. He did not help me.
Convert the following into Passive voice :
6. I told her a story.
7. What did he buy ?
8. Whom did you meet ?
9. Did you read this novel ?
10. I shall help him.
Convert the following into Active voice :
1. Will this house be sold by you ?
2. By whom will the bill be paid ?
3. I shall not disturb you.
4. We are being waited by her.
5. A letter was being written by him.
Convert the following into Passive voice :
6. My work was not being done by me.
7. This book has been read by her.
8. I have not been helped by him.
9. The food has already cooked by him.
10. The pack has been received by him.
