Answer: A
Personally I would say the answer is A, but the definition of slender is literally "gracefully thin," so you could argue it's both A and B. Maybe it's something to take up with your teacher.

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. :)                          
 
        
             
        
        
        
<span>From the excerpt Little Brother by Carey Doctorow is a story about Marcus who works against the DHS or Department of Homeland Security. In the given paragraph, Marcus kept telling Severe haircut woman that Darryl did not do anything wrong and kept asking why he was in jail. He even questions himself, in spite of being interrogated why was it not him that was in there when in fact it was he that made those internet hacking contents and traffic jamming codes to rebel against DHS. Even severe haircut woman (a nickname he made because he did not know her name) kept saying to him that he is being watched but was never found.</span>
