In the blank space after each sentence, identify the underlined verb as active(A) or passive(P)

1:An interesting novel(was given)to my class by our literature teacher.P***

2:Robinson Crusoe (was written)by Daniel Defoe.P***

3:In the story, Robinson Crusoe (is shipwrecked)on an island.A***

4:The novel (was published)in 1719.P***

5:It (is judged)b scholars to be one of the first English novels ever written.A***

6:His father (named) him Daniel Foe.A***

Are these correct?

The subject of an active voice sentence performs the action of the verb: “I throw the ball.” The subject of a passive voice sentence is still the main character of the sentence, but something else performs the action: “The ball is thrown by me.

Agree with all except 5.
