    Question

    Choose the option that is the active form of the sentence.
    The politician’s speech was loudly cheered.

    A.

    The audience cheer the politician’s loud speech

    B.

    The audience was loudly cheered by the politician’s speech

    C.

    The audience loudly cheered the politician’s speech.

    D.

    The audience had been loudly cheered by the politician.

    Correct option is C

    Option (c) The audience loudly cheered the politician’s speech is the correct active form of the sentence.
    · Active Voice- Active voice is a grammatical structure in which the subject of the sentence performs the action expressed by the verb.
    · Passive Voice- Passive voice refers to a grammatical construction where the subject of a sentence undergoes an action rather than performing it. In passive voice sentences, the emphasis is on the recipient or object of the action.
    • The original passive sentence "The politician’s speech was loudly cheered" indicates an action (cheering) performed on the subject (the speech) by an unspecified agent.
    • Transforming it into the active voice, the logical subject performing the action (the audience) is placed at the beginning, followed by the verb (loudly cheered) and the object of the action (the politician’s speech).
    • This maintains the original meaning while shifting the focus onto the doer of the action, the audience.
