Correct Answer: Rajat first heard the story of his uncle’s mysterious disappearance in his childhood.
Solution : The correct choice is the second option .
Explanation : In the original sentence, the subject is passive. 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 is as follows: Subject + verb + object + prepositional phrase.
Therefore, the correct answer is: Rajat first heard the story of his uncle’s mysterious disappearance in his childhood.
