Correct Answer: The storytellers who participated in the International Festival received a standing ovation.


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Active voice is the voice where the subject performs the action. When transforming the passive voice to the active voice, the object and the subject get inverted.

The structure of the sentence in the active voice is subject + verb + object .

Therefore, the sentence in the active voice is: The storytellers who participated in the International Festival received a standing ovation .
