C. The writer wants to hide the identity of the person who broke the pot
The writer wants to hide the identity of the person who broke the pot. Explanation: The best explanation why the writer would revise this sentence to use the passive voice is that the writer wants to hide the identity of the person who broke the pot. This is the best explanation of the use of the passive voice. Options that say the writer doesn’t know aren’t good explanations because it’s the writer who determines things in a text. The last option is also not a good explanation. This is a disputed use issue, and this case concerns the use of the passive voice.
VS). The writer wants to hide the identity of the person who broke the pot. Explanation: Depending on the question, the best explanation or justification for revising the sentence given in the passive would be that “the author intends to hide/conceal the identity of the person who broke the pot”. Converting the sentence to a passive would shift the focus from the subject to the object and emphasize the action of “breaking” and the object that was broken “jar” rather than the doer, which is the main purpose of using the passive voice. The subject becomes the addressee who could be omitted from the sentence (in the passive voice to mask the identity of the author). Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
