The theme of happy family life changing towards violence and theme of freedom and confinement are prevailing in the story. Drinking excess of alcohol became a reason for the unnamed narrator to witness a change in his nature. He was a jolly person living with his wife and his pets who were very dear to him. Later, he grew violent and harsh towards them which ended in killing them. Though he wanted to hide everything, his fate turned everything upside down, resulting in his imprisonment.

The time when he was free and lived with his family he turned to be harsh and a murder but when his life got confined behind the bars of the prison, he became calm and even confessed his wrongdoings.

Explanation:
Active voice is demonstrated as the grammatical construction in which the subject itself performs the action while in the passive voice the object and the verb act upon the subject and the subject become the recipient of the action. In the former, the subject is emphasized while in the latter the object is focused upon and showed interest in. In the given sentences, the doers of the actions are missing, and therefore, they will be filled using the rule of passive voice for present indefinite tense 'is/am/are + V3' as mentioned above.
