Answer:

Correct answer is A.

Explanation:

In the active voice sentences the operator of an activity is the subject in the sentence, so in sentence A we can see how Drew as a subject operated a nerf gun and pulled the triger, where nurf gun and trigger represent the objects.

In the passive voice sentences, construction - Object from the active sentence becomes subject of passive + verb TO BE in the appropriate tense + main verb (from the active) in Past Participle - is characteristic. This pattern can be recognized in sentences B, C and D.

Answer:

A) Drew aimed his nerf gun at the target and pulled the trigger.
