Select the correct active form of the given sentence. "The damaged road will be repaired by the municipality."
To convert the given passive sentence into active form, we need to follow a few key steps. Let's analyze the sentence:
Passive Sentence: "The damaged road will be repaired by the municipality."
The structure of a passive sentence generally follows: [\text{Object + will be + past participle + by + Subject}].
Our first step is to identify the subject, verb, and object in the passive sentence:
- Object: The damaged road
- Subject: The municipality
- Verb: Will be repaired
In the active voice, the subject of the passive sentence becomes the doer of the action (i.e., the subject). The verb changes from passive to active form, and the object of the passive sentence becomes the object of the active sentence.
Thus, the active voice structure will follow: [\text{Subject + will + base verb + object}].
By applying these changes, we construct the active sentence:
Active Sentence: "The municipality will begin repairing the damaged road."
Let's examine the options provided:
- The municipality will have begin repairing the damaged road.
- The municipality will begining repairing the damaged road.
- The municipality is begin repairing the damaged road.
- The municipality will begin repairing the damaged road.
Out of these, option 4, "The municipality will begin repairing the damaged road," uses the correct future tense structure ("will begin"), aligns grammatically, and conveys the intended action correctly from the passive sentence. The other options contain grammatical errors such as incorrect tense usage and incorrect verb forms ("will have begin," "begining," "is begin").
Therefore, the correct answer is:
Option 4: The municipality will begin repairing the damaged road.
