Active vs Passive Voice

This grammar quiz gives you 12 short sentences and asks one thing: is each one in the active or the passive voice? Instead of filling a blank, you read a full sentence like "The car is washed on Mondays" or "Camille prepared the sandwiches this morning" and decide who is doing the action. Best for students who already know the basics and want to spot voice quickly. A useful pattern you will pick up is that passive sentences often hide the doer, so "The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889" never tells you who actually built it.
