Question

    Select the correct passive form of the given

    sentence.  Somebody has already tipped the custom authorities about the drugs.
    A Custom authorities have already been tipped by the drugs. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Custom authorities have already been tipped about the drugs. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Custom authorities have already tipped someone about the drugs. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Custom authorities were already tipped about the drugs. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In the passive form, the sentence is rewritten to emphasize the receiver of the action (custom authorities) by using the passive voice construction "have been tipped." The preposition "about" remains the same to indicate the subject matter.
