Correct Answer: Flowers are bought by a stranger for the dead man’s grave.
Solution : The correct option is the fourth option.
Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the sentence in the passive voice is: Object + are + past participle form of the main verb + by + agent of action + prepositional phrase.
Therefore, the sentence in the passive voice is: Flowers are bought by a stranger for the dead man’s grave.
