English

The statement that is written in the passive voice is "It was said that the store had a good sale," as stated in the second option and explained below.

<h3>What is passive voice?</h3>

A sentence is written in the passive voice when the subject is not the one performing the action expressed by the verb. The structure of the passive voice is:

  • Subject + to be + main verb in the past participle

Compare the two sentences below to better understand the use of passive voice:

  • I took the cat to the vet. --> Active voice. The subject "I" performs the action of taking the cat.
  • The cat was taken to the vet by me. --> Passive voice. The subject "cat" receives the action of being taken to the vet.

That is why the correct answer for this question is the second option. We have a passive structure at the beginning of the sentence, "It was said."

Vinvika [58]

For avoiding repetition when writing, subject pronouns are commonly used to substitute (I, you, he, she, it, we, they) when you write them BEFORE the verb. If not, object pronouns (me, you, him, her, it, us, them) is the option when the action goes directly into de subject.

Also the use of indefinite articles (a/an) change when you know what you are referring to, to definite articles (the).

Examples with pronouns:

There was a big dog in the street. It was playing with a cat.

Example with articles:

There was a big dog in the street. The dog was playing with a cat.

solmaris [256]

It's how Manu's feelings are being described in that moment. A normal game of hide-and-seek is fun and makes you happy. Manu is crying and weeping. Also when Rhagu catches up with him the way his satisfaction is described "icking the beads of perspiration off his upper lip, and then stalked off in search of worthier prey". That is not a normal response to an everyday game. They also describe the people who are hiding as "prey". Even Ravi is terrified. He feels "exposed" almost like an animal and he is described as looking around frightened.
