Correct Answer: The officers talked about this in the meeting.


Solution : The second option is the correct answer.

In the active voice sentence, the subject (the officers) performs the action of talking (the verb), and this is the receiver of that action.

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

Therefore, the correct answer is: "The officers talked about this in the meeting."
