Change the following sentence into the Active form.
The national anthem is sung at the beginning of every match.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The original sentence, 'The national anthem is sung at the beginning of every match,' is in the passive voice. The subject ('The national anthem') receives the action, and the performer of the action (the agent) is unstated.
To change it to the active voice, the performer of the action must become the subject. The most logical agent in this general context is 'people'.
Option B correctly identifies 'People' as the subject performing the action ('sing') in the correct simple present tense, which matches the original sentence's tense.
