○ mustata is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race was win by him last weekend.

Explanation:

To convert the sentence to active voice, the subject (Mustafa) should perform the action. Let's analyze each option:

• Option 1: "the race had been won" is passive. Eliminate.
• Option 2: "he won the race last weekend" has Mustafa (he) as the doer of "won", which is active. The tense is correct (past simple for a past action).
• Option 3: "win" is incorrect tense (should be "won" to match past context). Eliminate.
• Option 4: "the race was win" is grammatically incorrect (should be "won" in passive or "he won" in active). Eliminate.

Answer:

B. Mustafa is an excellent long - distance runner, and he won the race last weekend.
