Question 14 • 26/27 ENGLISH 11 A

Which two of the following sentences are active-voice revisions of the sentence above?

Answer
A
The new book was read by Cole’s bestselling author.
B
The new book, written by the bestselling author, was read by Cole.
C
Cole read the new book by the bestselling author.
D
Cole read the bestselling author’s new book.

Explanation

In an active-voice sentence, the subject performs the action. In C and D, Cole is the subject and performs the action “read,” so both sentences are active. A and B use “was read,” making the book the receiver of the action, so they are passive.
