Somebody told me that there had been an explosion in the Town Hall

  • A.I was told by somebody about the explosioin in the town hall
  • B.I was told about the explosion in the town hall
  • C.I was informed that there was an explosion in the Town Hall
  • D.I was told by somebody that there had been an explosion in the town hall

Answer: D

Correct answer: I was told by somebody that there had been an explosion in the town hall

Only the main verb changes: told me becomes I was told. The reported clause there had been an explosion is untouched, which is why the options that shift it to was or drop the agent alter more than the voice.
