Let the fire be kept burning at night.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Keep the fire burning at night.

  • The active form "Keep the fire burning at night" is correct because it directly addresses the action to be taken.
  • The original passive sentence uses "Let the fire be kept burning" to express a command or instruction.
  • Converting it to active voice, we focus on the action itself, which is to "Keep" the fire burning, effectively conveying the same directive more straightforwardly.
