Correct Answer: A truck ran over the dog.


Solution : The correct option is "A truck ran over the dog."

Explanation: In active voice, the subject performs the action. Here, "a truck" is the subject, and it performs the action of running over the dog. This construction is more direct and concise in conveying the action. The structure to be followed for the active voice sentence in the case of simple past tense is: "Subject + past form of the verb + object."

So, the correct sentence would be: " A truck ran over the dog. "
