Which revision puts the sample sentence in active voice?

English

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]2 years ago

The correct answer is B. Family members set places at the table for relatives who cannot attend.

The original, passive sentence was - <em>Places are set at the table by family members for relatives who cannot attend. </em>In order to revise this sample sentence into active voice, we need to put the subject of the sentence first - those who perform the action of setting the table - family members.

Therefore, options C and D are incorrect because the subject doesn't come first here - these two examples are still passive sentences. Options A and B are active; however, A is incorrect because members who aren't present cannot possibly set the table. Thus, the only correct answer is B.

Answer:

C). Parody compares the pigs with human leaders in the real world.

D). Exaggeration makes Pilkington seem ridiculous and similar to the pigs.

E). Satire creates an attitude of contempt for the pigs’ treatment of the other animals.

Explanation:

Satire is demonstrated as the literary device that employs irony, humor, overstatement, or ridicule to reveal and comment upon the follies or vices inherent in the society or an individual.

In the given excerpt from 'Animal Farm', Orwell's use of parody(imitation of a specific author or genre to intentionally exaggerate it  and generate a comic effect) assists in establishing the comparison between the pigs and human leaders which critiques the foibles of the latter mockingly. Exaggeration helps in ridiculing Pilkington's foolishness that makes him look similar to the pigs. While <u>satire displays Orwell's disdainful attitude towards the manner in which the pigs(representing Pilkington) treat other animals('long working hours, absence of pampering')</u>. Thus, the satire assists in highlighting and critiquing the corruption and vices of the leader like Pilkington more effectively before the audience. Thus, <u>options C, D, and E</u> are the correct answers.

Which would be the BEST resource for comparing and contrasting information on cancer diseases with the information in this dicti
tia_tia [17]

The best resource for comparing and contrasting information on cancer diseases would be option C --The science of malignant tumors. Option A is about how to beat a specific type of cancer but it does not compare or contrast information on different types of cancer. Option B seems to be a kind of biography, which may or may not contain specific information about cancer. Option D is a medical dictionary which probably contains information about different kinds of cancer, but to use it, the reader should know what word to look up. Option C is the only one addressing malignant tumors, and therefore, it is to be expected to provide information to compare and contrast different types of cancer.

The Hermit Story -
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The idea that has been suggested through using the word 'grace' is that there are moments of grace; unearned and undeserved, around us that we need to observe.

Explanation:

"The Hermit's Story" is a short story written by Rick Bass. The story is about the magical world.

It is evident in most of Rick's story that people found grace in the elements of earth, sky, water, etc.

In "The Hermit's Story" as well, people found grace in elements such as water, animals, etc.

<u>The idea that the author wants to suggest using this word is that there are moments of grace around us, only we need to observe them. The author wants to convey that just like there was a magical world beneath the ice surface, there's is a magical and essential things beneath the surface of the body, that is soul</u>.

Why was King George VI's war speech such a daunting task for him? A. He had chosen to ignore Hitler's vicious acts when he could
nignag [31]

Answer:

nyksl Ambitious

The right answe is "A. He had a speech impediment, so he was worried he would be perceived as weak and unable to win a war."

Often the image that reaches us of great leaders does not show all the nature and personal characteristics behind the figure of leader. George VI possessed a characteristic that was remarkable during all his personal life and that was the main guide line of the film "The Discourse of the King". It is the stammering that persecuted the monarch from the tender age of 4 and that was reason of many difficulties for the King.

Upon his brother's abdication and the decision to take the throne, George VI was forced to face this problem and deal with it throughout his reign. With much training, persistence and courage, the monarch faced this difficulty, worked on his speeches, kept the morale of the population on the rise and became a symbol of British resilience.
