Question

Choose the passive voice of : “Shut the door and leave.”

• A. Let the door be shut and you are ordered to leave
• B. Let the door be shutted and you are ordered to leave
• C. Let the door be shut and you be left
• D. Let the door shut and you are ordered to leave

Hint:

For imperative sentences (commands), if there is an object, use the "Let..." structure for the passive. If there is no object, use a phrase like "You are ordered/requested to...".

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Analyze the sentence. It is a compound imperative (two commands). Each part must be made passive.
Step 2: Convert the first command. "Shut the door" is a command with an object. The passive form for such commands is "Let + object + be + past participle". This becomes "Let the door be shut."
Step 3: Convert the second command. "Leave" is a command without an object. It implies an order given to the listener. Its passive form is "You are ordered to leave."
Step 4: Combine the two parts. The full passive sentence is: "Let the door be shut and you are ordered to leave."
