Correct Answer: Option A

Explanation:
'Too...to' structure can be made passive: 'The coffee is too hot to be drunk.' The question asks active of a given sentence? Actually the given is active voice (The coffee is too hot to drink). So active voice is the sentence itself. But I need a question. I'll adjust: Let's make 'Select the correct passive voice of: The coffee is too hot to drink.' Then B 'The coffee is too hot to be drunk' is correct. So I'll rephrase question: 'Select the correct passive voice of: 'The coffee is too hot to drink.'' Then correct_answer B.
