    Question

    Which of the following sentences is in passive

    voice?
    A He kept me waiting Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B The town was destroyed by a Tsunami Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C I watched you very carefully Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D I ordered the dinner Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In the passive voice, the sentence structure focuses on the object receiving the action, followed by the past participle of the verb and (optionally) the agent performing the action introduced by "by." In sentence 2, "The town" is the object receiving the action of being destroyed, "was destroyed" is the past participle of the verb, and "by a Tsunami" explicitly names the agent who performed the action. This follows the typical passive voice construction.
