Final Answer:
Passive voice transformation: "The decision not to buy a new iPhone today was made by Captain Marvel, who was tired of waiting."
Step-by-step explanation:
In transforming the active voice sentence into passive, the focus shifts from Captain Marvel as the subject to the decision itself. To construct the passive voice, start with the subject of the active voice sentence ("Captain Marvel"), followed by the appropriate form of the verb "to be" in the past tense ("was"), the main verb in the past participle form ("made"), and finally, the rest of the sentence with the auxiliary verb ("who was tired of waiting"). This restructuring emphasizes the decision and its origin rather than Captain Marvel as the active agent in the sentence.
In the original active sentence, "Captain Marvel, tired of waiting, decided she wasn't going to buy a new iPhone today," Captain Marvel is the subject, actively making the decision. The task is to transform this into passive voice, where the focus shifts from the active "Captain Marvel" to the action itself.
To achieve the passive voice, start with the receiver of the action, which in this case is "the decision not to buy a new iPhone today." This becomes the subject of the passive sentence. Next, include the appropriate form of the verb "to be" in the past tense ("was"), followed by the main verb in the past participle form ("made"). Then, include the active agent ("by Captain Marvel") to maintain clarity about who made the decision. Additionally, the phrase "who was tired of waiting" provides additional context about Captain Marvel's state of mind at the time of making the decision.
The transformed passive sentence reads: "The decision not to buy a new iPhone today was made by Captain Marvel, who was tired of waiting." This structure places emphasis on the decision itself rather than the active agent, Captain Marvel, thereby shifting the focus to what was decided rather than who made the decision.
