Question

Convert this to passive voice - Shouldn't we make efforts to preserve our culture?..​

Answer 1

Answer:

Shouldn’t efforts be made for our culture to be preserved?”

However, this Is clearly awkward. It seems that the agent bears the duty of preserving our culture. In this case the agent is us, the caretakers and producers of our culture, so we should therefore take an “active” role in preserving our culture grammatically and literally.

“Shouldn’t efforts be made to preserve our culture? “

This is more natural but the speaker is still skirting responsibility.

In addition most passive forms can be complimented with the agent.

“It was painted by Leonardo da Vinci “ for example. But…

“It was painted by me" sounds childish.

Or take another example which highlights why the questioner’s sentence does not work well in the passive:

“The car was stolen by us “
