The sentence with an active voice in following sentence is letter B: The chairman told me that the legislature passed the bill. The rest of the choices are in passive voices. It is a passive type of a sentence if the meaning of the subject is indirect, with comma, or uses ‘by’ or in this case ‘with’. In A, C, D, the verb used is past while in active sentence, the verb used is in present tense and is direct in giving out information which is the case for latter B.
