Answer 2

the term passive voice refers to a type of sentence or clause in which the subject receives the action of the verb. For example, "A good time was had by all." Contrast with active voice. A. is incorrect, if it said the sun WILL beat down then it would be correct. B. is incorrect, if it said Carla WILL GO then it would be correct. C. is incorrect however if it said Jason will bake a cake then it would be correct. This leaves us with D. This receives the action of the verb.

Answer = D.
