Question

13. Change the sentence into the Passive Voice. Jane cut her hair very short.​

Answer 1

Her hair was cut very short by Jane.

Answer 2

To change the sentence "Jane cut her hair very short" into the passive voice, you need to restructure it so that the focus is on the action rather than the person performing the action. In the passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject, and the original subject may or may not be included.

The passive voice construction is typically formed using a form of the verb "to be" (such as "is," "am," "are," "was," "were") and the past participle of the main verb. In this case, the past participle of "cut" is "cut."

So, the passive voice of the given sentence would be:

"Her hair was cut very short by Jane."

In this passive construction:

- "Her hair" is the subject of the sentence. - "was cut" is the passive verb phrase. - "very short" remains the same as in the original sentence. - "by Jane" is an optional part that indicates who performed the action.
