Discussion
Choose the most appropriate option in the passive form for the sentence given.
People advised us not to go out alone.
Answer: D
The passive form is We were advised not to go out alone.
In 'People advised us not to go out alone', the object us becomes the subject We, the past tense 'advised' becomes 'were advised', and the general agent 'people' is dropped. The infinitive phrase 'not to go out alone' stays as it is.
'I was advised' changes 'us' to 'I'. 'To get out alone is not advisable' changes the meaning and tense. 'Given the advise' misuses the verb advise for the noun advice.
