SOLUTION
The correct answer is option 4)
- Let’s look at the following rules while changing the voice of an assertive sentence.
- Find the subject (Mrs. Vandana) and object (we) of the sentence and exchange their places; make changes in their cases as well if subject and object are pronouns (‘we’ changes to ‘us’).
- Use preposition by before agent (Mrs. Vandana).
- Use helping verb in passive form according to the tense of active form (use of ‘are’).
- Always use the third form of the main verb (‘teaches’ into ‘taught’) in passive form.
