Explanation:

To determine active voice, we check if the subject performs the action. In option A, "Maize" (subject) performs "gave" (action). Options B, C, D use passive voice (subject receives action, with "were eaten", "were organized", "were charged" and "by" indicating the doer of the action is not the main subject).

Answer:

A. Maize gave a beautiful speech at the Veteran’s Day Memorial.
