Show Answer

S8. Ans.(d)
Sol. When a subject is followed by a noun which is then followed by an infinitive (To + V1) and subject does the work itself, then no passive voice formation exists for such case. Hence option D is the correct choice in the given context as no passive voice will be formed.

(a) Some money has to be deposited by me.
(b) Some money have to be deposited by me.
(c) Some money has to deposit by me.
(d) Some money has to be deposit by me.

Show Answer

S9. Ans.(a)
Sol. Active Voice: Subject + has/have + to + V1 (1st form) + object.
Passive Voice: Object + has/have (according to the object= new subject) + to + be + V3 (3rd form) + by subject. Moreover, money is an uncountable noun, hence will take ‘has’ with it.
Hence option A fits in the context.
