Correct answer: C

The correct passive voice transformation of the sentence "Did he kill a lion?" is Option 3: "Was a lion killed by him?".

Explanation

  • Active Voice: The original sentence "Did he kill a lion?" is in the simple past tense and is an interrogative sentence.

  • Passive Transformation: To convert this to the passive voice, the object ("a lion") becomes the subject, the verb "kill" changes to its past participle form ("killed"), and the auxiliary verb "was" is placed at the beginning to maintain the interrogative structure.
