(A) I remember I was taken to the museum.

(B) I remember being taken to the museum by my sister

(C) I remember myself being taken to the museum by my sister

(D) I remember taken to the museum by my sister

I remember being taken to the museum by my sister is the best fit among the alternatives. The correct answer is option 2) I remember being taken to the museum by my sister. The sentence given is in the active voice. Subject, verb, and object in the active voice. A detailed explanation is mentioned below.

I can still picture my sister (subject) driving me (object) to the museum. Object + Auxiliary Verb + Past Participle Form of Verb + By + Subject = Passive Voice

  • I recall being taken to the museum by my sister. – The verb’s participle form, aking, has been utilised here.
  • We utilise eing + past participle form of the verb to convert participles into the passive voice. In this instance, it would be aken here.

The Active to passive voice rule

Rule 1: To change an active sentence to a passive voice, find the (S+V+O) Subject, Verb, and Object.

Rule 2: Swap the roles of the object and subject such that the active sentence’s object becomes the passive sentence’s subject.

Rule 3: The subject in passive voice may not always be utilized if the content of the phrase is sufficiently conveyed without it.

Rule 4: In a passive sentence with a third-form verb, such as preceded by, change the base verb into the past participle (By, With, to, etc). Passive voice sentences never employ base verbs.

Rule 5: The pronoun used in the phrase changes in the following way when the active voice is changed to the passive voice.

Rule 6: Use the appropriate auxiliary or assisting verb (is, am, are, was, etc.). Each tense has a different set of guidelines for the use of auxiliary verbs in passive voice phrases.

The Right answer: I recall my sister taking me to the museum.
