*The letter ..... Yesterday .<br> wrote <br> was written <br> had written <br> has been written
Naily [24]

Answer:

The letter <u>was written</u> yesterday.

Explanation:

Yesterday is a keyword that indicates the action happened and ended. Therefore, we have to use past simple tense.

That leaves us with <u>wrote</u> and <u>was written</u> choice. Last two choices are past perfect and they should only be applied when there consists of past tense in one clause —> e.g I had eaten rice before I went to bed.

Next, we have to understand between active voice and passive voice.

Active Voice

Subject + Verb + Object

An example of active voice is:

  • I eat rice.
  • I write a book.
  • I hit a desk.

On the other hand, we have:

Passive Voice

Object + verb to be/have + been (if there is) + past participle + by subject (if there is)

An example is:

  • Rice is eaten by me.
  • A book is written by me.
  • A desk is hit by me.

Active voice starts with subject causing something to object.

Passive voice starts with object being caused something by subject.

And we know that a letter cannot write itself so it cannot be a subject but an object.

Hence, the letter was written yesterday is correct, indicating that the letter was being done and not letter doing.
