Select the option that expresses the given sentence in active voice.

Those four pages were torn by Jack.

The correct option is: Jack tore those four pages.

Key Points

•  The original sentence is in the passive voice, where the subject "four pages" receives the action of being torn by "Jack."
• In the active voice, the subject performing the action (Jack) should be at the beginning of the sentence.
• The verb "were torn" is past passive and should be converted to the past tense active "tore" to match the original tense and meaning.
• Since the sentence talks about a completed action in the past, the correct active voice construction uses the past tense of "tear," which is "tore."

Therefore, the correct answer is: Jack tore those four pages.

 Additional Information

• "Jack tears those four pages" (Option 1) uses the present simple tense, which is incorrect.
• "Jack tear these four pages" (Option 3) is grammatically incorrect; it lacks the past tense and subject-verb agreement.
• "Jack tore these four pages" (Option 4) is incorrect because it uses "these" instead of "those".
