Team Careers360 · Accepted Answer

Correct Answer: The teacher was compelled to finish the class sooner.

Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who acts. Hence, the object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the passive voice in the case of the simple past tense is: "Singular object + was + past participle form of the main verb + prepositional phrase."

Therefore, the passive sentence would be: "The teacher was compelled to finish the class sooner."
