1. The ship is being taken to safe water by the Captain and not his crew.

Answer: A

Explanation: Option ‘A’ (The Captain and not his crew is taking the ship to safe water.) Subject में जब दो nouns/pronouns AND NOT से जुड़ी हों तो verb पहले वाली noun/pronoun के अनुसार आती है. Option ‘A’ में noun THE CAPTAIN और HIS CREW दोनों AND NOT से जुड़ी हैं, अतः verb सिर्फ THE CAPTAIN के अनुसार ही use होगी.

2. They looked after the children well.

Answer: B

Explanation: Option ‘B’ (The children were well looked after by them.). WELL को adverb of manner और adverb of degree degree दोनों ही के रूप में use किया जा सकता है. Active Voice के दिए हुए वाक्य में ये एक adverb of manner है. Active Voice के वाक्य में WELL जब degree of manner हो तो ये object के बाद आती है; और यदि object ना दिया गया हो तो ये verb के बाद आती है. परन्तु Passive Voice में ये main verb के तुरंत पहले आती है; जैसे

INCORECT: The children were looked after well by them.
CORREC: The children were well looked after by them.

3. Promises should be kept.

Answer: D

4. This word cannot be uttered by a sane man.

Answer: D

5. He recommended using bulletproof glass.

Answer: D

Explanation: Option ‘D’ (He recommended that bulletproof glass should be used.). सरंचना Recommend + Gerund + Object’ को Passive Voice में आमतौर पर संरचना ‘That – should’ का use करके बदला जाता है. ऐसी अन्य verbs हैं: Advise, Insist, Propose and Suggest.

6. People believed that he was a crook.

Answer: A

Explanation: Option ‘A’ (He was believed to be a crook.). Active Voice के वाक्य की verb (यहाँ UNDERSTAND) के बाद THAT-CLAUSE का use है. UNDERSTAND के अतरिक्त ऐसी ही कुछ और verb हैं: Feel, Believe, Consider, Know, Report, Say, Suppose, Think. इन verbs के बाद जब THAT-CLAUSE का use हो तो Passive Voice निम्न प्रकार से बनाया जाता है:

It + Main clause की verb की passive form + That-Clause यूँ का यूँ

अथवा

That-Clause का subject + Main clause की verb की passive form + That-Clause की verb की infinitive form + दिया गया object/adjective

कुछ उदाहरण
a) People consider that Mohan is a fool.
= It is considered that Mohan is a fool.
= Mohan is considered to be a fool.

b) They say she will resign.
= It is said she will resign.
= She is said to be going to resign.

c) The public will learn with astonishment that war is imminent.
= It will be learned/learnt with astonishment that war is imminent.
= War will be learned/learnt to be imminent with astonishment.

NOTE: Sentence ‘b’ में verb SAY के बाद का clause वास्तव में THAT-CLAUSE ही है क्योंकि verb ASK के बाद THAT का use ऐच्छिक (optional) होता है.

7. Strong Anti-Corruption law is liked by neither the Central Government nor the State Governments.

Answer: B

Explanation: Option ‘B’ (Neither the Central Government nor the State Governments like strong Anti-Corruption law.). जब दो subject सरंचना NEITHER – NOR से जुड़े हुए हों तो verb NOR के बाद वाले subject के अनुसार आती है. यहाँ NOR के बाद noun plural है; अतः verb भी plural ही use होगी.

8. We saw them go out.

Answer: B

Explanation: Option ‘B’ (They were seen to go out.). Passive verbs के बाद आने वाली infinitive verb LET के अतिरिक्त हमेशा full infinitive (to + V1) use होती हैं.

Active Voice में verb SEE (यहाँ SAW) के बाद bare infinitive (V1 without TO) use होती है; परन्तु Passive Voice में infinitive GO नहीं बल्कि TO GO use होगी.

9. They let us go.

Answer: D

Explanation: Option ‘D’ (We were allowed to go by them.). Option ‘B’ अशुद्ध है क्योंकि verb LET को कभी भी passive form में use नहीं किया जाता; अर्थात WERE LET गलत है.

10. People are spending far more money on food now than they spent ten years ago.

Answer: A
