Select the correct active form of the given sentence.

The meal will have been made ready by the cook by the time you reach the guest house

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. The cook will have made the meal ready by the time you reach the guest house.

  • The correct active form of the sentence is "The cook will have made the meal ready by the time you reach the guest house." This transformation shifts the focus from the passive construction, where the emphasis is on the meal being prepared, to an active voice that highlights "the cook" as the subject acting.
  • By using the active voice, the sentence identifies the cook as the one who will complete the meal preparation before the listener arrives.
