Select the option that expresses the given sentence in active voice.

The painting was done by his son.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

 The correct answer is option 2 i.e. His son did the painting.

  • In the active voice, the subject of the sentence ("His son") performs the action ("did the painting").
  • It's a straightforward and direct way to convey the information.
  • In the original sentence, "The painting was done by his son," the passive voice is used, where the subject receives the action.
  • The active voice option changes the sentence to make the subject ("his son") the doer of the action ("did the painting").

Hence, the correct sentence would be His son did the painting.
