I would have kept your bicycle here if you had left it with me.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Your bicycle would have been kept here if you had left it with me.

  • An object must answer 'what' or 'whom'.
  • Since 'your bicycle' answers 'what', it is the object here which should be the subject in the passive voice.
  • 'Have'  changes to 'have been' while changing into passive.
  • As the chosen option follows the above structure it will be correct.
