Answer:

C. sentence 3

Explanation:

English sentences have either active or passive voice. When the subject of a sentence does an action, the sentence is active. For example: Mike wrote a letter to his friend.  

The sentence has passive voice when the subject receives an action. Like: A letter was written by Mike.  

<u>Formula of passive voice: (to be)+ past participle</u>

Sentence 3 (a priceless painting is stolen by the thieves) has a passive voice; verb 'is' and 'stolen, past participle of steal'.

As is the denial of Solidarity and its leader Lech Wałęsa’s right to dissent. And Nelson Mandela’s interminable imprisonment.

There is so much injustice and suffering crying out for "

LiRa [457]

Answer: "By contrast, the plantation had only one purpose: to create a single product that could be grown, ground, boiled, dried, and sold to distant markets."

Explanation:

<em>Sugar Changed the World </em>is a book written by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos. In the book, they explore the history of sugar, particularly in slave trade.

In this excerpt, the author's claim is that plantation was considered as a revolutionary way of making sugar: the whole process from planting the seeds to drying and selling it was happening in one place. It was the first time in human history that the farms were organized in such a way. The correct answer is, therefore, the second option.
