The given sentence is in the active form. It is in the simple past tense.

The structures for active/passive voices are:

Active: Subject + verb (IInd form) + object...

Passive: Object + was/were + verb (IIIrd form) + by + subject...

So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into passive voice: The research paper was written by Jiya with the help of her tutor.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

Therefore, it must be changed to the Passive voice, where something could be done by the subject, and it was ‘passive’.

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 (‘the students’ becomes the subject in place of ‘The teacher’).

2. Add the appropriate form of the verb ‘be’ to the sentence.

3. In such case having infinite verb ‘to + verb’, ‘be’ is added after ‘to’ and converted the verb into past participle (‘going to take’ is converted into ‘going to be taken’).

Then, the same sentence in the Passive voice is ‘The students are going to be taken on a picnic by the teacher’.

Hence, option D is correct answer.

The given sentence is in the active form of the simple past tense. The structures for active/passive voices are:

The rules for converting indirect to direct speech are as follows:

• Use the reporting verb, "said”

• Remove the conjunctions "that” and insert quotation marks.
