Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Post this letter at once.
- The given sentence is an example of an Imperative sentence.
- The imperative sentence in active voice always starts with the sentence's main verb.
- Remove the words 'Let' and 'be' because these words are not used in the active form of the Imperative sentence.
- in an imperative sentence(passive voice) 3rd form of the verb is used. The 3rd form of the verb is changed into 1st form of the verb for making the active voice of the imperative sentence.
- Structure:
- Let + subject + be + V3. (passive voice)
- Main verb(V1) + subject. (active voice)
- Therefore, ‘Post this letter at once’ is the correct sentence.
