Answer 1

The correct answer is Option 2)

Key Points

The sentence is in the passive voice and needs to be converted to the active voice.
In the passive voice, the subject of the sentence (in this case 'her') is the recipient of the action.
In the active voice, the subject of the sentence (in this case 'She') performs the action.
The correct active form of the sentence should be in the present continuous tense to match the passive construction 'is being given'.
Format = Subject (she) + Verb (present continuous tense here) + Object (a party) + prepositional phrase (on the occasion of her sixteenth birthday.)

Therefore, the correct active form is: 'She is giving a party on the occasion of her sixteenth birthday'.
