Solution : The correct choice is the first option .
Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the passive in the case of the simple past tense is: "Singular object + was + past participle form of the verb + 'by' followed by the agent of the action."
Therefore, the passive sentence is: "The entire house was decorated by my father."
