    D The behemoth was caught by Peter in his fangs, while Peter was trying to free himself. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The subject and the object inverses in passive voice. Hence our subject would be ‘Peter’ and our object would be ‘Behemoth’. As the active voice is in simple past the passive voice must be in simple past as well. So ‘caught’ becomes ‘was caught’.
