Question 5 • English Language Arts 11

Which sentence uses passive voice?

Answer
A
We arrived early for our annual dental check-ups.
B
Calm music played quietly in the dentist’s office.
C
Dr. Gomez greeted us warmly and took X-rays.
D
We were given new toothbrushes by the hygienist.

Explanation

In passive voice, the subject receives the action rather than performing it. In “We were given new toothbrushes by the hygienist,” “we” received the toothbrushes, and “were given” is the passive verb phrase. The other sentences describe subjects performing actions or events happening.
