Correct Answer: A new game was started by the teacher to keep the class engaged.
Solution : The correct choice is the second option .
Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the passive sentence in the simple past tense is object + was + past participle form of the main verb + by + agent of the action + prepositional phrase.
Therefore, the passive sentence is: A new game was started by the teacher to keep the class engaged.
