Answer 1

The answer is as follows:

The sound of footsteps on the road roused him.

• The sentence is present in the passive voice. We need to change it in its active voice.

• Since 'he' is the subject in the passive voice, it becomes the object in the active voice.

• 'Was roused' indicates simple past tense. Therefore, 'roused' is used in the active voice.

• 'The sound of footsteps on the road' becomes the subject in the active voice.
