 Have the box broken.

  • A.Break the box.
  • B.Get someone to break the box.
  • C.Have the broken box.
  • D.They have broken the box.

Answer: B

Correct answer: Get someone to break the box.

Have the box broken is a causative: the speaker is not doing the breaking but arranging for it. The active equivalent therefore needs an agent to do it - get someone to break the box. Break the box makes the listener do it.
