Question 11 • GA-Literature and Composition I CR

Read the sentence.During the scenic tour of the national park, the cascading waterfall was photographed repeatedly.

Answer
A
active voice
B
passive voice
C
future tense
D
present tense

Explanation

The subject, “the cascading waterfall,” receives the action rather than performing it. The verb phrase “was photographed” uses a form of “be” (“was”) followed by the past participle “photographed,” which signals passive voice. The sentence is in the past, not the future or present, so the correct choice is passive voice.
