    My mother makes cookies every Saturday.
    Solutions

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

    Therefore, it must be changed to the Passive voice, where something could be done 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 (‘cookies’ become the subject in place of 'my mother').

    2. Add the appropriate form of the verb 'be' to the sentence and use the past participle of the verb (‘makes’ is converted to ‘are made’).

    3. Add a 'by' followed by the doer of the action.

    Thus, the same sentence in the Passive voice is ‘Cookies are made by my mother every Saturday’.

    Hence, option A is the correct answer.

    “You must work hard to succeed in your new venture”, said the mother to her son.
    Solutions

    The given sentence is in Direct Speech because it quotes actual words. Therefore, it must be changed into Indirect Speech.

    We notice that the reporting verb is in the Past tense (‘said’). Hence, a change will be made in the tense of the reported speech.

    Also, in the given sentence, the mother is advising her son to work hard. Hence, ‘advised' is the apt reporting verb here.

    'Your' is converted to 'his'.

    Therefore, the sentence in Indirect Speech will be option D i.e. The mother advised her son to work hard to succeed in his new venture.

    Rakesh and Mahesh comes to mine house every Sunday for lunch.
    Solutions

    Subjects joined by ‘AND’ are usually plural and take plural verbs. Also, 'my' is a possessive adjective and 'mine' is a possessive pronoun. We use 'my' where we already have a noun (such as house) and want to indicate ownership. Like with all pronouns, we use 'mine' in place of another noun when it's understood what's being discussed.

    Hence, the underlined part should be replaced with option D i.e. come to my house.
