Correct Answer: The official opened the entrance of the museum.


Solution : The first option is the correct choice.

Active voice emphasises the doer of the action, while passive voice emphasises the receiver. To convert passive to active, we make the subject perform the action and rephrase the verb.

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

Therefore, the correct answer is: "The official opened the entrance of the museum."
