Question
Select the option that expresses the given sentence in
active voice: The report should be submitted by the interns before 5 PM.Solution
The original sentence is in passive voice: âshould be submitted by the internsâ.
To change it to active voice, we bring the doer (the interns) to the subject position and use the modal verb with the base form of the verb:
âThe interns should submit the report...âOption 1: âshould be submittingâ suggests an ongoing action, not a simple instruction.
Option 2: âshould have submittedâ changes the tense and meaning.
Option 3: Is grammatically incorrect and nonsensical.
So, the best active form is: "The interns should submit the report before 5 PM."
