Which revision puts the sample sentence in active voice?

Answer
A
Family members who cannot attend set places at the table.
B
Family members set places at the table for relatives who cannot attend.
C
Places are set by family members at the table for relatives who cannot attend.
D
Places for family members are set by relatives who cannot attend.

Explanation

Active voice places the person doing the action before the verb. In “Family members set places,” family members perform the action of setting, so choice B is active. Choices C and D use “are set,” a passive-voice construction.
