Explanation:

Active voice refers to a sentence where the subject performs the action that is described by the verb. On the other hand, passive voice refers to sentences where the subject is acted upon by the verb. Sentences that are written using active voice are usually considered to be more impactful, straightforward and clear. Therefore, you should try to use mostly active voice in your writing.
