Correct Answer:
Option A —
The results will be announced by the committee tomorrow.
To convert a sentence from active to passive voice, you must follow a specific structural formula, especially when dealing with the future tense.The Passive Voice Formula (Future Tense)When a sentence uses will, the passive structure shifts as follows:$$\text{Object} + \text{will be} + \text{Past Participle (V3)} + \text{by} + \text{Subject}$$Step-by-Step Conversion:Identify the Object: "The results" moves to the front.Add the Auxiliary: "Will" becomes "will be."Change the Verb: "Announce" becomes the past participle "announced."Place the Subject: "The committee" follows the preposition "by."Why the other options are incorrect:B) The results are announced...This changes the tense to the Present Simple. The original sentence is in the Future tense.C) The results will announce...This lacks the verb "to be." Without "be," the sentence implies the results themselves are performing the action of announcing.D) The committee will be announced...This incorrectly keeps the original subject at the beginning, suggesting that someone is going to announce the committee, rather than the committee announcing the results.
