Correct Answer: The village had been devastated beyond imagination by the earthquake.
Solution : The second option is correct.
Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.
The structure of the passive voice in the case of the past perfect tense is: "Singular object + had been + past participle form of the auxiliary verb + 'by' followed by the agent of the action + prepositional phrase."
Therefore, the sentence in the passive voice is: "The village had been devastated by the earthquake beyond imagination."
