C is the correct answer. Answers A, B and D are all written in passive voice, which can be pinpointed with the use of the ‘by phrase’, for example, ‘the part in the musical was hoped for [by Kylie]’. Such by phrases can be omitted in a passive and the phrase will still make sense.

Answer: C.Kylie hoped that she would get the part in the musical.

Explanation: In sentences written in active voice, the subject performs the action expressed in the verb, the

subject acts. In this case, the subject, "Kylie," performs the action, "hoped”.
