OOOOO This one's hard

I'd say A

OpenStudy (jgirl128):

active voice means the verb of a sentence is doing an action. an example is "daniel kicked the ball." I'd say the answer is actually D.

OpenStudy (jgirl128):

"gave" is the action verb, all the other sentences use "given" given is in the past and gives the passive voice
