Solution

The correct option is D Is English spoken by him?
When changing the active voice to passive voice, we have to be careful about the tense as well.
Option A) did he speak English? is incorrect because it is in past tense.
Option B) will he speak English? is an interrogative sentence and a future-tense sentence.
Option C) Does he know English? is a way of asking the same question with the word 'know' replacing 'speak'. We cannot change the meaning of the sentence, so this option is not the right answer.
So, the correct answer is D) Is English spoken by him? This follows the rules of changing active voice to passive voice for simple present tense.
