The correct passive voice is: Her performance was loved by the audience.

Key Points

  • The sentence is in active voice, with the subject "audience" performing the action of "loving" the object "her performance."
  • To convert to passive voice, we need to make the object the subject and the subject the object.
  • "Her performance" becomes the subject, "was loved" becomes the verb in passive voice, and "by the audience" remains the object.
  • The sentence now emphasizes the action being done to the subject, rather than the subject performing the action.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.

Additional Information

  • "The audience will love her performance" changes the tense and keeps the sentence in an active voice.
  • "The performance is loved by the audience" only partially converts to passive voice by making the object the subject, but keeps the verb in active voice.
  • "The performance was loved by her" changes the object to the subject, but creates a nonsensical sentence by making "her" the object of "loved."
