Select the option that expresses the given sentence in active voice.
An enquiry is demanded by us.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. We demand an enquiry.
- Option 1: "We demand an enquiry" is the correct active voice conversion. This correctly places "We" as the subject, "demand" as the verb, and "an enquiry" as the object. It is the direct and present form of the verb, matching the original tense and intent.
- Option 2: "We may demand an inquiry" introduces the possibility, which the original passive sentence does not imply.
- Option 3: "We demand an inquiry" maintains the simple present tense, unlike "We are demanding an inquiry," which shifts to the present continuous tense.
- Option 4: "We will demand an enquiry" changes the tense to future, which is not the same as the simple present tense in the original sentence.
Thus, the correct answer is "We demand an enquiry".
