Select the option that correctly expresses the following sentence in passive voice.

The child will recite the poem.

The correct answer is: The poem will be recited by the child.

Key Points

• The original sentence is in the active voice.
• The passive construction of the sentence involves switching the positions of the subject and the object and adjusting the verb accordingly.
  • Structure (Active Voice): Subject (The child) + Will recite + Object (the poem)
  • Structure (Passive Voice): Object (The poem) + Will be recited by + Subject (the child)
• When transforming this into the passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence, and the subject becomes the agent preceded by the preposition "by."
• In this case, "will recite" in the active voice corresponds to "will be recited" in the passive voice.
• The use of "by" in the passive construction indicates the agent (the child) carrying out the action.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2.
