B Correct answer
Explanation

While changing the voice, we interchange the respective places of the subject and the object. In passive voice, we always use the third form of the verb with the helping verb. Passive of past simple takes 'was/were' with the past participle form of the verb. Option 1 is wrong due to deletion of article 'the' before the second noun.
