Grammar 59 - Present Perfect Passive
In the previous five High English quizzes, we have learnt what constitutes sentences in active voice and passive voice. In this quiz we take a look at writing sentences in passive voice in the present perfect tense.
Sometimes, the speaker or writer would want to make the object of a sentence in the active voice into the subject position of the sentence in passive voice to emphasise something or bring focus on to the object. In such situations, we use the passive voice. Here is a sentence in active voice:
‘Detectives have questioned Mr Pranav, our neighbour.’
This sentence lays emphasis on the detectives but we would probably be more interested in our neighbour, and this can be expressed well in a sentence in passive voice like this:
