Choose the correct passive voice for the active sentence: ‘She could solve the puzzle.’
AThe puzzle was could solved by her.
BThe puzzle could be solved by her.
CThe puzzle could be solving by her.
DThe puzzle could solve by her.
Explanation
When a sentence contains the modal verb ‘could,’ the passive voice follows the standard modal passive pattern of ‘modal + be + past participle,’ giving ‘could be solved.’ This same pattern applies consistently to other modal verbs, meaning the modal itself never changes form when converting an active sentence to the passive voice.
