Question

From the alternatives given below, select the correct passive voice of the following sentence.

Always keep in mind that truth pervades the whole universe.

The correct answer is

Let it always be kept in mind that the whole universe is pervaded by truth.

The sentence begins with 'Always keep in mind that...', which is an imperative (a command), and imperatives follow a special pattern when made passive.

An imperative like 'Keep in mind that X' becomes 'Let it be kept in mind that X' in the passive, so 'it' and 'be' are both essential.

The adverb 'always' is retained in its usual mid position, giving the opening 'Let it always be kept in mind that...'.

The inner clause 'truth pervades the whole universe' is itself made passive: the object 'the whole universe' becomes the subject, giving 'the whole universe is pervaded by truth'.

Option 1 drops the required 'it', and option 2 writes 'always kept' without the verb 'be', so both are grammatically incomplete.

Option 3 leaves the inner clause active ('the whole universe pervaded truth'), so it fails to convert the sentence fully into the passive.

Hence, the correct passive voice is Let it always be kept in mind that the whole universe is pervaded by truth.
