Question 96

For a formal facilities report, select all sentences that use an appropriate neutral passive rather than an informal get-passive.

  1. The ceiling was stained by a leaking pipe.Bonne réponse
  2. The storage door got jammed during the move.
  3. The reception carpet got marked by wet boots.
  4. The access panel was dented during installation.Bonne réponse

Explication

The ceiling and access panel sentences use neutral be-passives suited to the formal report. The get-passives are standard in informal speech, not incorrect, but the explicit register requirement makes them inappropriate here.
