Choose the correct active voice of: 'It is believed that he is honest.'
A. Both A and B.
B. People believe that he is honest.
C. They believe him honest.
D. He is believed to be honest.
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Both are acceptable active versions: 'People believe that he is honest' and 'He is believed to be honest' is still passive, not active. Option A is active. But question asks active of 'It is believed...'. Active: 'People believe that he is honest.' Option B is passive again. So I need to set correctly. I'll set option A as correct and B as another passive. I'll adjust options: a) People believe that he is honest. b) He is believed to be honest. c) People believes that he is honest. d) They believed him honest. Correct is A. So answer A.
