B. Rewrite the following paragraph in the active voice.

Last summer our house was painted by me. The job took about two weeks. First, the exterior
was washed using warm water and a mild detergent. Then all the chinks and pores in the walls
were sealed with putty. After the putty had had a chance to dry, the exterior could be painted.
A latex paint was used because it is easy to apply and cleans up with water. A whole week
was needed to finish this part of the job. I was very careful to apply the paint evenly because
I did not want to have to apply two coats. A color was used that was very close to the original
color. Our house is a two-story house, which meant that a tall ladder was needed to do the
second story. The paint can had to be balanced on the top rung of the ladder while I worked.
When the job was finished, a great deal of satisfaction was felt by me. I had to pat myself on
the back. Even my dad said that a good job was done.
