and have children? VIOLA: 'Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white Nature's own sweet and cunning hand laid on: Lady, you are the cruel'st she alive, If you will lead these graces to the grave, And leave the world no copy. … I see you what you are: you are too proud; But, if you were the devil, you are fair. My lord and master loves you. O, such love Could be but recompens'd though you were crown'd The nonpareil of beauty!

Which situations are best suited for the passive voice? Select three options. when you are talking about a general truth when th
Georgia [21]

The passive voice formed by Subject + verb to be+Past Participle. The object in the active voice becomes the subject of the passive voice and the subject of the active voice is either the object in the passive voice or is not mentioned.  

The passive voice is used when we don't know the performer of the action. Example: “The house was built in 1884” in this case we don't know who built the house.

The passive voice is used when the focus is on the receiver of the action. Example: “Five people were killed in a car accident”, in this case the focus is on “five people”

The passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. Example: “The car was stolen”, in this case the emphasis is on the fact that the car was stolen and not on who stole it.  

So the three options that apply to the uses of the passive voice are:

when the performer of the action is unknown  

when you want to emphasize the action directly  

when you want to emphasize the receiver of the action

What did scops help to preserve?<br> a. poetry<br> b. tradition<br> c. English<br> d. entertainment
Snowcat [4.5K]

The right answer is a. poetry.

Scops were professional poets that brought the epic poems to life. Playing harp, the scop would chant in a clear voice that carried over the shouts and laughter of the crowd, captivating them for hours on end with tales of courage, high drama, and tragedy. These epic poems were an oral art form: memorized and performed, not written down. Later, literacy spread through Britain, and poems were more likely to be recorded. Thus, only a fraction of Anglo-Saxon poetry has survived, in manuscripts produced centuries after the poems were originally composed.
