Correct Answer: I was sent a gift on my anniversary by someone.
Solution : The correct choice is the third 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 sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice. Thus, the subject will be "I" and the object will be "gift".
The structure of the passive sentence is subject + was + past participle form of the main verb + object + prepositional phrase + additional information.
Therefore, the passive sentence would be: "I was sent a gift on my anniversary by someone."
