Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. We were kept waiting for one hour by the officers.

The original statement is in the proper passive voice here. In the passive sentence, the object ("us") becomes the subject ("we"), and the subject ("the officers") becomes the agent.
