Following are some practice questions related to Active and Passive Voice as asked in Bank IBPS / SBI / SSC Exams:

Q1. A sentence has been given in active/passive voice in the given question. Out of the five given options, suggest the one which best expresses the given sentence in passive/active voice:

(i) The management is planning a new project with my company.

A. A new project was being planned with my company by the committee.

B. A new project is planned with my company by the management.

D. A new project is being planned with my company by the management.

E. A new project had been planned with my company by the management.

Answer: Option – D

Solution: The given sentence is in the active voice in the present continuous tense.

The structures for active/passive voices in the specific tense are:

Active: Subject + is/are/am + verb (ing) + object…

Passive: Object + is/are/am + being + verb (IIIrd from) + by + subject…

So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into passive voice as:

A new project is being planned with my company by the management.

‘With my company’ defines the area where the project is being planned and not the management; hence it will not be a part of the subject.
