Key Points
- The given sentence, "Let us forget the past," is in the imperative mood and active voice.
- In the passive voice, the focus shifts to the object, which is "the past."
- When transforming imperative sentences into passive voice, the structure is: "Let + object + be + past participle."
Correct transformation: Let the past be forgotten.
Additional Information
- Incorrect options explanation:
- Option 1: Let the past and us be forgotten – This is incorrect because it changes the meaning of the sentence by including "us" as the subject of forgetting.
- Option 2: Let not the past be forgotten – This is incorrect because it conveys the opposite meaning (negative imperative).
- Option 3: We must let to forget the past – This is grammatically incorrect and does not follow the rules of voice transformation.
