i’ve got 30+ missing assignments i’m just doing them all rn so i figured i’d post the answers
Using passive and active voice quick check (answers are all correct)
1) select the correct word from the drop down list. when the subject of the sentence performs the action, the sentence is in **active voice**. When the subject of the sentence receives the action, and the person or thing doing the action follows the verb, the sentence is in **passive voice**.
2) select the correct word from the drop down list. sentences with **passive voice** are wordier because they have an additional helping verb and sometimes the word by. Sentences with **active voice** are more clear and concise.
3) When is it appropriate to use the passive voice?
** when the person or thing performing the action is unimportant or unknown
4) Which sentence is written in active voice?
** rebecca and lauren went to the beach
5) Use the sentence to answer the question. The game was won by the Bluejays. How would you change the sentence from passive voice to active voice?
** revise it so the person or thing doing the action (the Bluejays) comes before the verb (was won)
