C 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. Some changes are made in the pronoun usage.  Sometimes we need to provide the missing subject/object. Here, option 2 and 4 are incorrect. Object 'him' is missing in option 1. Hence, option 3.
