Correct Answer: Her fine dance performance charmed everyone.


Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

The active voice is a sentence structure where the subject performs the action expressed by the verb. In the passive sentence, the subject is "everyone" and the object is "her fine dance performance". In the active voice, the subject becomes the doer of the action. So, "everyone" becomes the one doing the action. The object "her fine dance performance" is now placed after the verb "charmed" in the active sentence.

The sentence structure in an active voice in the case of the simple past tense is, "Subject + past form of the verb + object".

Therefore, the correct answer is: Her fine dance performance charmed everyone.
