Find the sentence with the active voice.
A. The chairman told me that the legislature passed the bill.
B. It was voted by the legislature to pass.
C. The bill was passed by the legislature.
D. I was told by the chairman that the bill was passed by the legislature
i don't know if its a or d
It is letter A, because the chairman is DOING the telling, which is active voice. In letter D, the chairman is being ACTED UPON by the verb "told", which is passive voice. Does this make sense?
The sentence with the active voice is:
A. The chairman told me that the legislature passed the bill.
To determine the active voice, we need to identify the subject of the sentence and check if it is performing the action. In this case, the subject is "the legislature," which is actively performing the action of passing the bill. The chairman, in turn, is the one relaying this information.
