Which of the following phrases is in the active voice: "She will be taking" or "She has been taken"?

  1. She will be taking

  2. She has been taken

  3. Both are active

  4. Neither are active

The correct answer is: She will be taking

The phrase "She will be taking" is in the active voice, which indicates that the subject of the sentence (in this case, "she") is performing the action of the verb (taking). In active voice constructions, the subject is the doer of the action, highlighting their agency in the sentence. Conversely, "She has been taken" is in the passive voice because the subject is receiving the action rather than performing it. In this construction, the focus shifts away from who is doing the action to what is happening to the subject. Understanding the distinction between active and passive voice is essential, especially in communication within law enforcement and border patrol contexts, where clarity and directness are crucial.
