Question

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in active voice.
My request should be considered.

A.

Consider my request.

B.

Please do consider mine request.

C.

Please have consider my request.

D.

Please consider my request.

Correct option is A

The correct active/passive voice of the given sentence is (a).
Explanation:
· The given sentence is in passive voice: My request should be considered.
· Passive voice structure: Object + modal verb + be + past participle
· → “My request” is the object, “should be considered” is passive.
· To convert into active voice, the subject becomes understood 'you', and the verb is changed to imperative form (command/request).
· → Hence, the active voice is: Consider my request.
Structure:
· Passive: My request should be considered.
· Active: (You) consider my request.
Grammar Rule Used:
· Imperative Sentences in Active Voice often begin with the base verb directly (without a subject), especially when expressing commands or requests.
· Passive form using modal + be + V3 changes to base verb (active command) in imperative mood.
Example:
· Passive: The letter should be posted.
· Active: Post the letter.
Why other options are incorrect:
· (b) Please do consider mine request – ❌ Incorrect usage of “mine” instead of “my” (possessive adjective needed, not pronoun).
· (c) Please have consider my request – ❌ Grammatically wrong; “have consider” is not a valid construction.
· (d) Please consider my request – ✅ Grammatically correct, but “please” adds a polite tone, whereas the original sentence is neutral. Since the original sentence does not indicate a polite request, (a) is the best direct equivalent.
✅ Therefore, option (a) is the correct and precise active form of the passive sentence.
