Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

Which of the following sentences is the correct passive voice transformation of: 'The fisherman caught the marlin off the coast of Barbados'?

  1. The marlin was caught by the fisherman off the coast of Barbados.
  2. The marlin is caught by the fisherman off the coast of Barbados.
  3. The marlin had been caught by the fisherman off the coast of Barbados.
  4. The marlin were caught by the fisherman off the coast of Barbados.
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A — The marlin was caught by the fisherman off the coast of Barbados.
Award 1 mark for correctly identifying the passive voice transformation with 'was caught' matching the simple past tense of the original. B is incorrect — it changes the tense to simple present. C is incorrect — it changes the tense to past perfect. D is incorrect — 'were' does not agree with the singular subject 'marlin'.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A student in Jamaica wrote the following sentence: 'The hurricane destroyed many homes.' Which transformation correctly changes this to an interrogative sentence?

  1. Did the hurricane destroy many homes?
  2. The hurricane destroyed many homes?
  3. Many homes were destroyed by the hurricane?
  4. Was many homes destroyed by the hurricane?
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A — Did the hurricane destroy many homes?
Award 1 mark for using the auxiliary 'did' with the base form 'destroy' to form the interrogative. B is incorrect — simply adding a question mark does not create a grammatically correct interrogative. C is incorrect — this is passive voice, not an interrogative transformation of the active sentence. D is incorrect — 'was' does not agree with the plural 'homes'.
