C2 Grammar
Complex passive chains
1/10
Choose the best C2 style principle.
A sentence can be grammatically possible yet unnecessarily difficult to process.
Use the full chain when each layer of time, aspect and voice matters; otherwise prefer a clearer paraphrase.
Always choose the longest auxiliary chain because it is more advanced.
Avoid passive voice entirely in formal English.
Replace all perfect passives with simple present forms.
