Convert the sentence from passive voice to active voice: A report is submitted to the supervisor by the intern every Monday.

1. The supervisor submits a report to the intern every Monday.
2. The intern submits a report to the supervisor every Monday.
3. The supervisor submitted a report every Monday.
4. The intern has been submitting reports to the supervisor every Monday.

Correct answer: The intern submits a report to the supervisor every Monday.

Solution

In the passive sentence, 'the intern' is the agent introduced by 'by'. To change it into active voice, make 'the intern' the subject and keep the present simple tense because the original sentence is in present simple passive.
