    Question

    Select the option that expresses the given sentence in active voice. "The letter had been posted by me before I met him."

    A.

    I had posted the letter before I met him.

    B.

    I had posted the letter after meeting him.

    C.

    The letter has been posted by me before I had met him.

    D.

    I met him after posting the letter.

    Correct option is A

    Explanation of the Correct Answer: · In passive voice: "The letter had been posted by me before I met him."
    · The active voice structure follows:
    · "Had been posted" (past perfect passive) → "Had posted" (past perfect active).
    · "By me" is replaced with "I" as the subject.
    · The correct active voice form is: "I had posted the letter before I met him."
    Why Are the Other Options Incorrect? · (b) "After meeting him" → Incorrect; changes the sequence of events.
    · (c) "Has been posted" → Incorrect tense usage; should be "had been posted."
    · (d) "I met him after posting the letter" → Incorrect structure.
    Thus, the correct answer is (a) I had posted the letter before I met him.
