The clown was being laughed at by them.

  • A.They were laughing at the clown.
  • B.They were laughing on the clown
  • C.They laughed at the clown
  • D.The clown was laughed at by them

Answer: A

Correct answer: They were laughing at the clown.

Laugh at is a prepositional verb, so in the active the preposition returns to its normal place before the object. The past continuous was being laughed at becomes were laughing; the plain past option changes the aspect.
