    She let him out of the house?
    Solutions

    The given sentence is in the Active voice, as the form of the verb (‘let’) shows that its subject (‘she’) was doing something and was ‘active’.

    Therefore, it must be changed to the Passive voice, where the action is performed by the subject.

    In order to do that,

    1. The object of the transitive verb in the Active voice should become the subject of the verb in the Passive voice (‘him’ becomes the subject in place of ‘she’).

    2. The appropriate form of the verb 'be' should be added to the sentence and the past participle of the verb (‘let’ is converted to ‘was let’) should be used.

    Thus, the correct sentence in the Passive voice is ‘He was let out of the house’.

    Hence, option D is the correct answer.

    The aeroplane is being taken to safe air space by the captain and not his crew.
    Solutions
    Basic rules to be followed for Active/Passive conversions are:

    1. The object of the active verb becomes the subject of the passive verb.

    2. The finite form of the verb is changed (to be+ past participle).

    3. The subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence (or is dropped).

    4. Preposition ‘by’ is used before object.

    The given sentence is in passive form of present continuous tense. The structures for active/passive voices are:

    Active: Subject+ Is/are/am + subject + verb (ing) + object…

    Passive: Object + Is/are/am + object + being + verb (IIIrd from) + by + subject..

    So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into active voice:

    When two nouns/pronouns in the subject are joined by AND NOT, the verb agrees with the first noun/pronoun. Hence, option A is the correct answer.
