Choose the correct passive voice for the causative active sentence: ‘They made him work hard.’
AHe was made working hard.
BHe was made to work hard.
CHe was made worked hard.
DHe was made work hard.
Explanation
In active voice, the causative verb ‘make’ is followed by a bare infinitive without ‘to,’ as in ‘made him work.’ However, when this type of sentence is converted into the passive voice, the rule changes, and ‘to’ must be added before the infinitive, giving ‘He was made to work hard.’ This shift is a well-known exception frequently tested in passive voice questions.
