Question : Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice.
Suman was taking a nap
Option 1: A nap was being taken by Suman.
Option 2: A nap has been taken by Suman.
Option 3: A nap is being taken by Suman.
Option 4: A nap was taken by Suman.
Correct Answer: A nap was being taken by Suman.
Solution : The correct choice is the first 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 voice in the case of the past continuous tense is: "Singular object + was + being + past participle form of the main verb + by + agent of the action."
Therefore, the passive sentence would be: "A nap was being taken by Suman."
