Correct Answer: My office colleagues have organised a farewell party for me.


Solution : The correct choice is the second 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 receiver.

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

Therefore, the required active voice sentence is: "My office colleagues have organised a farewell party for me."
