Carmen Todd · Answer 1

The "a) Brandon and Jake haven't been told the news yet" sentence uses the passive voice. A passive voice is used for focusing the sentence on the action of the subject and it is not important who or what is performing the action. The A sentence focuses on the "told" action and we can not identify the subject of that, thus it includes the passive voice.
