Correct Answer: The shutters were locked by the child.


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

Explanation:

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 passive voice is: object + were + past participle form of the verb + by + object.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The shutters were locked by the child.
