When you find a direct object in a sentence, the sentence is written using active voice. In active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb, and the direct object receives that action. For example, in the sentence "The cat (subject) chased (verb) the mouse (direct object)," the direct object "the mouse" is present because the subject "the cat" is performing the action of chasing.
