Question

10. Which sentences can't be changed into Passive? 1. He came home very late at night. 2. We picked flowers in the garden last Saturday. 3. The children made a snowman. 4. Jane seemed very excited. a) 2,4 b) 1,4 c) 2,3 d) 3,4 e) 1,2

Answer 1

Ответ:

b) 1, 4

Объяснение:

Пассив можно образовать только с глаголами, к которым имеется или можно добавить прямое дополнение, как в предложениях 2 (picked flowers - собрали что? цветы) и 3 (made a snowman - сделали кого? снеговика).

А к глаголам come и seem дополнения не подобрать, они непереходные, а значит, и пассив образовать с ними нельзя.

Answer 2

To determine which sentences can't be changed into the passive voice, let's examine each option:

1. "He came home very late at night." - This sentence can be changed into the passive voice: "Home was come to by him very late at night." Therefore, option e) 1,2 is incorrect.

2. "We picked flowers in the garden last Saturday." - This sentence can be changed into the passive voice: "Flowers were picked in the garden last Saturday (by us)." Therefore, option c) 2,3 is incorrect.

3. "The children made a snowman." - This sentence can be changed into the passive voice: "A snowman was made (by the children)." Therefore, option d) 3,4 is incorrect.

4. "Jane seemed very excited." - This sentence cannot be changed into the passive voice. The verb "seem" doesn't have a passive form. Therefore, option b) 1,4 is correct.

Based on the analysis above, the answer is b) 1,4.
