SSC Steno 202615 Sep 2026Shift IVoice (Active & Passive)

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice.

They play cricket every Sunday.

Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation

Answer: (A) Cricket is played by them every Sunday.

Play present indefinite में है (आदत), अतः passive is / am / are + V3 होगा। Cricket singular (एकवचन) है: is played।
Concept: present indefinite passive = is / am / are + V3।
✓
Cricket is played by them every Sunday.
'has played' में been नहीं है, 'was played' भूतकाल है, और 'played' passive नहीं है।
सरल अर्थ: वे प्रत्येक रविवार क्रिकेट खेलते हैं।
Play is in the present indefinite (a habit), so the passive is is / am / are + V3. Cricket is singular: is played.
Concept: present indefinite passive = is / am / are + V3.
✓
Cricket is played by them every Sunday.
'has played' lacks been, 'was played' is past, and 'played' is not a passive.

बाकी Options उत्तर क्यों नहीं हैंWhy the other options are not the answer

B'Cricket has played' present perfect passive (पूर्ण वर्तमान कर्मवाच्य) जैसा लगा। परंतु passive में 'been' चाहिए, और 'has played' वह नहीं है।'Cricket has played' looks like a present perfect passive. But a passive needs 'been', and 'has played' is not one.
C'Cricket was played every Sunday' शुद्ध passive है। परंतु 'was' भूतकाल है, जबकि 'play' वर्तमान की आदत है।'Cricket was played every Sunday' is a proper passive. But 'was' is past, while 'play' is a present habit.
D'Cricket played every Sunday' छोटा और passive जैसा लगा। परंतु 'is' के बिना इसमें सहायक क्रिया नहीं है, अतः यह वाक्य नहीं है।'Cricket played every Sunday' looks short and passive. But without 'is' it has no helping verb, so it is not a sentence.
