Correct answer: C. She wished a poem to be written.

- B. She wish a poem to be written.
- C. She wished a poem to be written.
- D. She wished that a poem to be written
Explanation
- The original sentence "She wished to write a poem" is in active voice, where the subject "she" performs the action of wishing and writing.- To convert it to a passive-like construction, we need to make the poem the focus, and the action (wishing) is performed on it. Hence, the correct construction is "She wished a poem to be written".- This construction is not entirely passive, but rather a passive-like construction, as "wish" is not an action that can be easily performed on an object.
