Correct Answer: All the wine in the glass has been drunk by someone.


Solution : The correct choice is the second 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.

The structure of the passive sentence in the case of the present perfect tense is: " Singular object + has been + past participle of the main verb + 'by' followed by the agent of the action ."

Therefore, the required passive voice sentence is: All the wine in the glass has been drunk by someone.
