Correct Answer: Somebody has stolen my pencils.


Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

The active voice in a sentence denotes that the noun or pronoun that acts as the subject in the sentence is the doer of the action.

The structure of the active voice sentence in the case of the present perfect tense is: Singular subject + has + past participle form of the verb + object.

Therefore, the correct answer is: "Somebody has stolen my pencils."
