A batch of cookies was baked for the party by her.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. She baked a batch of cookies for the party.
- The sentence "She baked a batch of cookies for the party" expresses the original passive voice sentence "A batch of cookies was baked for the party by her" in active voice.
- In the active voice, the subject (She) performs the action (baked) directly on the object (a batch of cookies), making the sentence more direct and concise.
- The passive voice shifts the focus to the action itself and the recipient, whereas the active voice highlights the doer of the action.
