The sentence "The boy jumped on the trampoline" is written in the active voice.
To determine which sentence is written in the active voice, we should identify the sentence where the subject performs the action directly.
In the sentence "The wedding dress was sewn by Katie," the subject "wedding dress" is receiving the action "sewn" rather than performing the action. This sentence is written in the passive voice, not the active voice.
In the sentence "The red barn was painted by the farmer," again, the subject "red barn" is the object of the action "painted" rather than the one performing the action. This sentence is also written in the passive voice.
However, in the sentence "The boy jumped on the trampoline," the subject "boy" is actively performing the action "jumped." This sentence is written in the active voice as the subject is doing the action.
In the sentence "The chocolate cake will be served to the queen," the subject "chocolate cake" is not actively performing the action "served." Instead, it is receiving the action. Therefore, this sentence is written in the passive voice, not the active voice.
So, the sentence "The boy jumped on the trampoline" is the one written in the active voice.
