    Question

    Convert the sentence provided below from its passive voice structure to an active voice structure:
    The package will have been delivered by the courier before 5 PM.

    A.

    The courier will deliver the package before 5 PM.

    B.

    The courier had delivered the package before 5 PM.

    C.

    The courier has delivered the package before 5 PM.

    D.

    The courier will have delivered the package before 5 PM.

    Correct option is D

    The correct active voice of the given sentence is (d) The courier will have delivered the package before 5 PM.
    Explain the rules of conversion (Passive → Active) with structure:
    Passive structure: Object + will have been + V3 + by + Subject + time
    · The package + will have been delivered + by the courier + before 5 PM
    · Active structure: Subject + will have + V3 + Object + time
    · The courier + will have delivered + the package + before 5 PM
    · Example (rule used): The work will have been completed by Friday. → They will have completed the work by Friday.
    · Why other options are incorrect:
    · (a) “will deliver” changes tense from future perfect to simple future.
    · (b) “had delivered” is past perfect, wrong time frame.
    · (c) “has delivered” is present perfect, also wrong.
    · Information booster / exception:
    · Future perfect indicates an action completed before a future time (“before 5 PM”). In conversion, keep will have + V3 intact.
