The correct option is C.

In English language, sentence can be written in active form or in passive form. To change a sentence written in passive voice to active voice do the following:

1. Look at the sentence carefully and determine the subject of the sentence. The subject of a sentence is the one who is performing an action in that sentence.

2. Determine the object of the sentence. The object of the sentence is the person or thing on whom an action is been performed.

3. Put the subject in the front of the sentence and place the object towards the end of the sentence.

In the sentence given above, 'My parent' is the subject of the sentence while 'our' family is the object. So, to write the sentence in the active voice, 'My parent' which is the subject will come first, follow by the object, which is 'our family

By this still hearth, among these
barren crags,
Match'd with an aged wife, I mete and dole
Unequal laws unto a savage race,
That hoard, and sleep, and feed, and
know not me.

Read the passage and highlight sentence fluency errors you find.
Tasya [4]
1. There has to be a conjunction between "important," and "other" because otherwise, the sentence doesn't seem coherent. You can place 'but' between those words to make it correct, and to connect the two ideas into one sentence.
2. The phrase 'such as journal entries and poetry' should be placed after 'period' because otherwise, it is located too far from the word it is supposed to describe. So, 'fiction from that time period, such as journal entries and poetry, can be just as valuable.'
3. Again, there should be a conjunction between the words 'read' and 'they' because the way this sentence is written, it doesn't seem connected. You can write either '...are interesting to read because they give..." or '...to read as they give...'

Gwar [14]

Answer:

The coal miner symbolizes the fossil fuel energy used to create electricity to power devices.

Explanation:

The cartoon shows that electronic devices, while reducing the need for paper and consequently deforestation, do not represent green and pollution-free devices. This is shown by the presentation of coal.

Coal represents the burning of fossil fuels for the production of energy, which is a source of highly maleficent pollution and which causes a lot of environmental damage.

What effect did the author most likely intend with the description “Behind them the line of woods gaped like a dark open mouth”?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The author describes the woods as “a dark open mouth" to foreshadow the way the family will meet their deaths and also suggestive of how the story will end.

Explanation:

Flannery O'Connor's short story "A Good Man is Hard to Find" revolves around the story of a family's road trip that will lead to their deaths. And the tragic fate was a result of the grandmother's insistence that they go sightseeing, which led them to their car accident and discovery by prison escapee "The Misfit".

In describing the woods where they were stuck in as a <em>"line of woods [that] gaped like a dark open mouth”</em>, the author provides a foreboding of how the family will meet their fates. He personifies the woods as 'opening its mouth' and waiting to devour the family, suggestive of the imminent death of the whole family at the hands of The Misfit.

This description was the author's intention of predicting or foreshadowing the killings of the family members by The Misfit.
