  1. A

  2. B
    She felt praised by the lecturer.
  3. C
    She was praised by the lecturer.
  4. D
    She is praised by the lecturer.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The correct option is C.Active voice structure: Subject (The lecturer) + Past tense verb (praised) + Object (her).When converting to passive voice, the object 'her' becomes the subject pronoun 'She'.Since the original tense is Simple Past ('praised'), the passive structure uses 'was/were + past participle' "was praised".The original subject becomes the agent preceded by 'by' "by the lecturer".Thus, the passive sentence is: "She was praised by the lecturer."
