How to find whether the sentence is in active voice or passive voice?

➡ To know the voice on the given sentence, we first identify the subject and the object.

• The subject answers the question of "Who/what?" Therefore, the doer of the action (subject) is 'the loud noise (from the neighborhood)'.
• The object answers the question of "To whom/to what?" Therefore, the recipient of the action (object) is 'the baby'.

➡ The sentence structure of the given sentence is also 'Subject + verb + object.'

Hence, the given sentence is said to be in the active voice!
