Question

In which sentence is the action arrow pointing in the correct direction? <––––– The kitchen was left a mess by the children. ––––––> The kitchen was left a mess by the children.

Answer 1

I believe that the answer is the second one

Answer 2

The correct answer is the second one.

Step-by-step explanation:

In passive voice sentences it's the agent who performs the action over the subject.

Therefore, the second answer is correct because the arrow is pointing from the agent, (the children) to the subject (the kitchen.)
