Correct Answer: The poor people in your parish are to be helped by you.
Solution : The first option is correct.
Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the passive voice in the case of the simple present tense is: "Plural object + are + to be + past participle form of the verb + 'by' followed by the agent of the action."
Therefore, the required active statement would be: The poor people in your parish are to be helped by you.
