Which of the following is an example of an active voice sentence?

The project was done by the team.
The team completed the project.
The project was finished.
The project was made by them.

The correct answer is: The team completed the project.

An active voice sentence is one in which the subject performs the action, while in a passive voice sentence, the subject receives the action. In option A, the subject "project" is receiving the action "done" from the team, making it a passive voice sentence. Option C also uses the passive voice with "project" being the subject and "finished" being the action. Option D is similar to option A, with the subject "project" receiving the action "made" from "them." Option B is the only one that uses the active voice by having the subject "team" perform the action "completed" on the object "project." Therefore, option B, "The team completed the project," is the correct answer.
