Change the following sentence into the Active form. The report is expected to be delivered by the committee next week.
The committee expects to deliver the report next week.
In the passive sentence the agent is "the committee", so it must become the subject of the active sentence.
The passive verb group "is expected to be delivered" carries the present-tense idea of expectation, which in the active voice becomes "expects to deliver".
So the object "the report" is acted upon by the committee, giving "The committee expects to deliver the report next week."
Option A changes the meaning to a continuous intention, and options B and D either keep a passive form or shift the tense to future.
Hence the correct active form is The committee expects to deliver the report next week.
