Sentences are given in the active voice. Change them into passive voi...
Explanation:
Active Voice: You must look into this matter.
Passive Voice: This matter should be looked into by you.
In the active voice sentence, the subject is "you" and the object is "this matter". To change the sentence into the passive voice, we need to make the object the subject and the subject the object.
Construction of Passive Voice:
The passive voice sentence is constructed using the following formula:
Subject + Helping Verb + Main Verb (Past Participle) + Object
In this case, the subject is "this matter" and the object is "you". The helping verb used is "should be" and the main verb in the past participle form is "looked into".
Explanation of Options:
a) This matter has been looked into by you.
- This option is incorrect because it uses the present perfect tense ("has been") instead of the simple present tense used in the active voice sentence.
b) This matter may be looked into by you.
- This option is incorrect because it uses the modal verb "may" instead of the modal verb "should" used in the active voice sentence.
c) This matter should be looked into by you.
- This option is correct as it maintains the same meaning and tense as the active voice sentence. It uses the modal verb "should" to indicate necessity and the passive voice construction is appropriate.
d) This matter into looked by you.
- This option is incorrect because it does not use the correct passive voice construction. The main verb "looked" should be in the past participle form "looked into".
Therefore, the correct option is c) This matter should be looked into by you.
