SKILL 37: USE THE CORRECT FORM OF THE PASSIVE
One Way that the passive can be tested on the TOEFL test is simply with an incorrect form of the passive. The following are examples of passive errors that might appear on the TOEFL test:
• The portrait was
• The project will
In the first example, the passive is formed incorrectly because the past participle “painted” should be used rather than the present participle “painting”. In the second example, the verb “be” has not been included, and some form of be is necessary for a passive verb. The verb in the second sentence should be “will be finished”.
