Answer
A
The song that would be played by Millie in the talent show was written by Alejandro.
B
Alejandro wrote the song that Millie hoped to play in the talent show.
C
Alejandro wrote the song that would be played by Millie in the talent show.
D
The song that Millie hoped to play in the talent show was being written by Alejandro.

Explanation

In the original sentence, “the song” receives the action of being written, so the main clause is in passive voice. To make it active, put the person doing the writing, Alejandro, first: “Alejandro wrote the song.” Choice B also keeps Millie’s hope to play it in the talent show.
