Question

which sentence uses passive voice?
in the final chess move, one player captures the other players king.
chess teaches strategy and patience.
the tournaments have been won by max more than 100 times.
few chess players expect to win every time they play.

Explanation:

• Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action (the verb) and not on the subject (who or what is performing the action). The structure is "be + past participle".
• In the sentence "The tournaments have been won by Max more than 100 times", "have been won" is in the passive voice. The subject "the tournaments" is receiving the action (being won), and the doer of the action (Max) is introduced with "by".
• In the other sentences:
• "In the final chess move, one player captures the other player's king" - active voice (subject "one player" performs the action "captures").
• "Chess teaches strategy and patience" - active voice (subject "Chess" performs the action "teaches").
• "Few chess players expect to win every time they play" - active voice (subject "Few chess players" performs the action "expect").

Answer:

The tournaments have been won by Max more than 100 times.
