Xavier Oconnell · Answer 1

Passive Voice:

A hurricane watch has been issued by the authorities.

In a passive voice sentence, the subject is being acted upon by the verb issued.

In this sentence the direct object (Hurricane watch) (has received the action (Issued) acted upon by the subject : Authorities.

To identify passive voices, isolate the verb in the sentence and ask who or what is performing the action.

Clarissa Johnson · Answer 2

The passive voice is a grammatical "voice". The noun or noun phrase that would be the object of a corresponding active sentence (such as "Our troops defeated the enemy") appears as the subject of a sentence or clause in the passive voice ("The enemy was defeated by our troops").

So the answer would be:

A hurricane watch has been issued by the authorities.
