It’s the 3rd one because that’s the one that goes with it
Answer:
The teeter-totter was shared by the boys.
Explanation:
Passive voice is when the object of the sentence becomes the subject of the sentence. The subject of the sentence then receives the action instead of doing it. Passive voice always includes a form of the verb 'to be' and a particle of the main verb. In the case of the last sentence, the teeter-totter is the object/subject. "Was" is the past tense form of the verb "to be." Shared is the past particle of the verb "share."
So basically, the breakdown is like this:
The teeter-totter + was + shared by + the boys.
object past tense past particle subject
of the verb of the verb
'to be' 'share'
All the other sentences are in active voice as the subject is doing the action. "Lilly took", "Little boy arrived", "The boy started playing" all have the subject in front of the verb.
Hope this helps. :)

After a milestone, a new chapter begins and it is this new chapter that President Carter was referring to. The U.S. began a new chapter when they got their freedom and President Carter is trying to bring attention to this to show how far the nation had come since its founding.
