Question

Choose the correct passive voice transformation of the sentence: Why do they always make such a big fuss about trivial matters?

The correct answer is

Why is such a big fuss always made about trivial matters?

The active sentence is an interrogative in the simple present tense: 'Why do they always make...'.

In the passive, the object 'such a big fuss' becomes the subject, and the simple present passive uses 'is/are + past participle'.

Because the question form is retained, the auxiliary 'is' moves before the subject: 'Why is such a big fuss always made...'.

Option B keeps a wrong word order, option C shifts to past 'was made', and option D shifts to present perfect 'has been made', changing the tense.

Hence, the correct passive form is Why is such a big fuss always made about trivial matters?
