Correct Answer: He had written three novels and two story books before 2020.


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

Active voice is the voice where the subject performs the action. When converting a sentence from the passive voice to the active voice, the agent of the action becomes the subject.

The structure of the sentence in the active voice is: subject + had + past participle form of the verb + object + prepositional phrase.

Therefore, the sentence in the active voice is: He had written three novels and two story books before 2020.
