Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (A) Delicious meals are cooked by her.
Cooks present indefinite है, अतः passive में is / am / are + V3 आता है। नया कर्ता delicious meals बहुवचन है: are cooked।
Concept: present indefinite passive = is / am / are + V3, नए कर्ता के अनुसार।
✓
Delicious meals are cooked by her.
'is cooked' और 'has been cooked' बहुवचन कर्ता से मेल नहीं खाते, और 'were cooked' भूतकाल है।
सरल अर्थ: वह स्वादिष्ट भोजन पकाती है।
Cooks is the present indefinite, so the passive takes is / am / are + V3. The new subject delicious meals is plural: are cooked.
Concept: present indefinite passive = is / am / are + V3, agreeing with the new subject.
✓
Delicious meals are cooked by her.
'is cooked' and 'has been cooked' do not agree with a plural subject, and 'were cooked' is past.
