Correct Answer: The parcel had been delivered by the courier service.
Solution : The correct option is the third option .
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 sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the past perfect sentence in the passive voice form is: "Singular object + had been + past participle form of the main verb + 'by' followed by the agent of the action ."
Therefore, the passive sentence would be: "The parcel had been delivered by the courier service."
