Correct answer: A

The correct passive voice transformation of the sentence "He kept me waiting" is Option A: I was kept waiting by him.

Detailed Explanation

  • Active Voice Structure: The original sentence "He kept me waiting" is in the simple past tense, where "He" is the subject, "kept" is the verb, and "me" is the object.

  • Passive Voice Transformation:

    • To convert to passive voice, the object "me" becomes the new subject ("I").

    • The verb "kept" (simple past) changes to the passive form "was kept."

    • The subject "He" moves to the end as the agent ("by him").

    • Result: "I was kept waiting by him."
