Choose the correct passive voice for the active sentence with the impersonal subject ‘one’: ‘One should respect elders.’
AElders should respect one.
BOne's elders should be respected by one.
CElders should be respected.
DOne should be respected elders.
Explanation
When a sentence uses the impersonal pronoun ‘one’ to make a general statement, the passive voice typically drops this vague subject entirely, since it carries little specific meaning, giving simply ‘Elders should be respected.’ This mirrors how other unknown or unimportant agents, such as ‘someone,’ are often omitted from passive constructions.
