Question

read the sentence.
mustafa is an excellent long - distance runner, and the race was won by him last weekend.
which is the best way to write this sentence in the active voice?
○ mustafa is an excellent long - distance runner, and the race had been won by him last weekend.
○ mustafa is an excellent long - distance runner, and he won the race last weekend.
○ mustafa is an excellent long - distance runner, and he win the race last weekend.
○ mustafa is an excellent long - distance runner, and the race was win by him last weekend.

Brief Explanations

In active voice, the subject performs the action. The original sentence in passive voice has "the race" as the subject receiving the action ("was won"). To convert to active, "he" (Mustafa) should be the subject performing "won". Also, check verb tense: "last weekend" indicates past simple, so "won" (past simple of "win") is correct. The first option has "had been won" (past perfect passive, not active). The third option has "win" (present tense, wrong for "last weekend"). The fourth option is still passive ("was win" is incorrect grammar; should be "was won" but still passive).

Answer:

Mustafa is an excellent long - distance runner, and he won the race last weekend.
