Answer:

Active voice shows the subject acting upon the verb while the passive voice shows the subject as a recipient of the actions of the verb. In an active voice, the subject begins the sentence ending in the object whereas in a passive voice, the object starts the sentence ending in the subject.Among the options given in the question, the sentence that uses a passive voice is

1.The beef was voluntarily recalled by the company.

In an active voice, the sentence will become

The company (subject) voluntarily recalled (verb) the beef (the object).
