SSC MTS - 20 Feb 2026 - Shift 1 • English • Q80

Which of the following options is the most suitable conversion of the following sentence into active voice?
You are requested not to enter.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Sentence: "You are requested not to enter."

This is in the passive voice. It uses a form of the verb "to be" (are) + the past participle (requested).

Type: It is an imperative sentence conveying a request.

Conversion to Active Voice:

In English, when a passive sentence begins with "You are requested to...", the corresponding active voice typically uses the word "Please" to maintain the polite tone of the request.

The phrase "not to enter" becomes a negative command: "do not enter."

Combining these, we get: "Please do not enter."
