Question : Select the option that expresses the given sentence in active voice.
The villain of the play was hated by the audience.
Option 1: The audience hated the villain of the play.
Option 2: The villain hated the audience of the play.
Option 3: The audience had hated the villain of the play.
Option 4: The audience was hating the villain of the play.
Correct Answer: The audience hated the villain of the play.
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
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 verb + singular object."
Therefore, the correct active sentence would be: "The audience hated the villain of the play."
