SOLUTION

The correct solution is option 2.

Explanation
We need to follow these instructions while changing the voice of an assertive sentence.

  • When changing from passive voice to active voice, we need to first identify the subject and object of the sentence and interchange them.
  • Then identify the tense of the sentence and in the active form use the same tense. The given sentence is in the present tense because helping verb in the passive form has 'are'. So, the active voice will be in the simple present tense.
  • The verb in the passive form is the past participle of the verb. 'liked' is the past participle of the verb 'like'.
  • by’ is used before the object/ doer of the action.
  • Here, 'Such boys is the subject and 'people' is the object so they are interchanged.

 

  • Tense remains the same when you change the voice.

Following these steps, we finally get – "People always like such boys".
