<h3>What are comparative forms?</h3>

Comparative forms are grammatical structures that have the purpose of establishing a comparison between two or more objects, people, animals, situations, events, among others.

To identify a comparative form we must look at the sentences that highlight a characteristic of one object over another or that mention that it is similar to the characteristics of another.

According to the above, it can be inferred that the sentences that include comparative forms are:

  • 01. Some dreams are more mysterious than others. - The comparison is "more mysterious".
  • 02. Some dreams are as real as others. - The comparative is "as real as".
  • 04. Some dreams are longer than others. - The comparative is "are longer".
  • 32. My dreams are less intense than yours. - The comparative is "less intense than".

Which of the following verbs most likely indicates passive voice?
nignag [31]

Answer:

To be

Explanation:

Because it's the only one that includes "to be" in it...

To identify passive voice, look at what happened and look at who was responsible for doing it. If the person or thing responsible for doing the actions is either omitted or occurs in the sentence AFTER the thing that happened, AND if you see a past participle straight after the form of “to be,” it's passive voice.
