Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Change the following sentence into Active Voice:

You are ordered not to make a noise

Options:

You please do not make a noise

Don't make a noise

You are making a noise

You make a noise

Correct Answer:

Don't make a noise

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → Don't make a noise

The given sentence "You are ordered not to make a noise" is in the passive voice because the subject ("You") is receiving the action rather than performing it. In passive voice constructions, the subject typically undergoes the action of the verb.

To change this sentence into active voice, we need to make the subject ("You") the doer of the action. So, the active voice version would be "Don't make a noise." In this sentence, "You" is the subject performing the action of "making a noise."
