Reframe the sentence below from passive voice into active voice:

The proposal will have been reviewed by the committee prior to the meeting.

The correct answer is: "The committee will have reviewed the proposal prior to the meeting."

To convert a sentence from passive voice to active voice, follow these step-by-step grammatical rules:

Step 1: Identify the components of the passive sentence
• Subject (Receiver of action): "The proposal"
• Verb phrase: "will have been reviewed" (Future Perfect tense in passive voice)
• Agent (Doer of action): "the committee" (introduced by the preposition "by")
• Prepositional phrase/Time clause: "prior to the meeting"

Step 2: Swap the agent and the subject
Make the doer of the action ("the committee") the new subject of the active sentence.

Step 3: Adjust the verb tense accordingly
The original passive verb is in the future perfect tense ("will have been reviewed").
To change this to active voice, drop the auxiliary verb "been" while keeping the future perfect active form: "will have reviewed".

Step 4: Place the original subject as the direct object
The receiver of the action ("the proposal") now becomes the direct object after the verb.

Combining these parts gives: "The committee will have reviewed the proposal prior to the meeting."
