D. Correct way- On the edge of town the fair is help every year at the park
<em>Today early morning there was a knock at the gate . My mother got up and opened the door She cried with tears of joy. She saw her pet on the gate with a man. Her pet was lost some months ago. The man returned her pet . She was very happy to see her pet. I ran to the door and quickly snatched up the now, full grown puppy. Zeus was his name and that was because of a trident shaped scar on his bottom. For many months before we lost him, he was a rising star on social media. My mother had created a page for him, while I directed him in his videos. After almost 2 million subscribers his last video of when being explained how we had lost him gained over 4 million views. My mom cried and cried after losing him, blaming herself for forgetting to pick him up from a daycare. When the daycare had closed for the day the workers got tired of waiting for mom and placed him outside and then left. I was very angry with my mother for weeks. And didn’t want to see another dog. But now he was back and I can’t wait to make more memories with him.

Answer:
The Ministry of Transport received a petition sent by the residents against the authorities when they realized that the authorities were contracting a new motorway through the housing estate.
Explanation:
The active voice is the mostly used grammatical structure wherein the subject comes first, followed by the verb and then the object. The reverse is the case with the passive voice as the object becomes the subject of the sentence. The word order is reversed but the meaning of the sentence remains unchanged.
However, the reader might become confused with the passive voice as clarity is reduced. In the sentence above, the Ministry of Transport who were the object became the subject, and the the subject, 'residents', the object.
