Change the following sentence into the Active form. Let the documents be submitted to the head of the department by the end of the week.
Submit the documents to the head of the department by the end of the week.
The given sentence, 'Let the documents be submitted...', is an imperative in the passive voice built on the pattern 'Let + object + be + past participle'.
Such a structure expresses a command, order or instruction rather than a statement of fact.
To make an imperative active, we drop the introductory 'Let' and the passive 'be + past participle' and begin directly with the base form of the verb, addressing an understood 'you'.
So the doer of the action is commanded straight away, and 'be submitted' becomes the plain command 'Submit'.
This yields 'Submit the documents to the head of the department by the end of the week', which keeps the same meaning as a direct order.
Option A inserts 'You should', turning the order into a piece of advice rather than a command.
Option C uses 'will be submitted', which is a future passive statement, and option D retains the 'Let' structure, so it is not a true active imperative.
The correct active form is Submit the documents to the head of the department by the end of the week.
