Answer 1

The correct statement that describes a difference between the active voice and passive voice is:

Compared to the passive voice, the active voice emphasizes an action.

This is because in active voice constructions, the subject of the sentence performs the action, making it clear who is doing what, while in passive voice constructions, the focus is on the action itself or the recipient of the action, which can make the subject less prominent.
