The sentence in the paragraph that uses the active voice is:
1. The team collected statistics on every shot made and attempted.
The two types of voices in which a sentence can be written are active voice and passive voice.
Options 2, 3, and 4 of the question all use the passive voice. That means the subject of those sentences is not the performer of the action indicated by the verb.
In the passive voice, the action is performed by an agent, which comes after the word "by" in the sentence.
The structure of the passive voice is: <u>subject + to be + main verb (past participle) + by + agent.</u>
Example: <u>Sheila was contacted by her boss.</u>
On the other hand, option 1 uses the active voice. That means the subject is the performer of the action indicated by the verb.
In the active voice, it is the object who receives the action of the verb. The subject is the one doing it.
The structure of the active voice is: <u>subject + verb + object.</u>
Example: <u>Sheila's boss contacted her</u>.
In conclusion, the sentence "The team collected statistics on every shot made and attempted," in option 1, uses the active voice.
