Question

unit exam: editing and proofreadingactive or passive voiceactive voice -• the subject is the doer of the action.passive voice -• the action is being done to the subject.ask yourself:• who is the sentence about?• where is the verb in the sentence?• did the subject do or receive the action?which of the following sentences is in passive voice?this painting was made by my grandma.she created many artworks.she was a great artist.

Explanation:

• In this sentence, the subject ("this painting") receives the action ("was made") rather than performing it, which matches the passive voice definition (action done to the subject).
• The second option uses active voice: the subject "She" performs the action "created".
• The third option is a state-of-being sentence with no action verb, so it is neither active nor passive.

Answer:

A. This painting was made by my grandma.
