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.
