Correct Answer: The termites have destroyed her wooden almirah.


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Active voice emphasises the doer of the action, while passive voice emphasises the receiver. To convert passive to active, we make the subject perform the action and rephrase the verb.

The structure of the active sentence in the case of the present perfect tense is: "Plural subject + have + past participle form of the verb + object."

Therefore, the active voice would be: "The termites have destroyed her wooden almirah."
