PLEASE HELP (will give Brainliest :) Which clause in the passage is written in the passive voice? excerpt from The Galveston Hur

ricane adapted from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration With the wind and debris swirling around them, the citizens of Galveston waded through the rapidly rising floodwaters. They sought protection in the strongest-looking homes and structures they could find. One of these structures was Isaac Cline's house, where his wife, three daughters, brother, and about 50 neighbors took refuge from the maelstrom. In what has frequently been described as the city's finest hour, the citizens of Galveston displayed exceptional resiliency and determination. They decided to rebuild and, in so doing, achieved a remarkable feat of civil engineering. The two-fold project called for raising the grade of the entire city and building a seawall to help protect it.

Answer: In what has frequently been described as the city's finest hour, the citizens of Galveston displayed exceptional resiliency and determination.

Explanation:

Question:Which clause in the passage is written in the active voice?

excerpt from The Galveston Hurricane adapted from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

This is the answer because In passive voice, the doer comes after the thing that was done. Also, you can look for forms of “to be” followed by a past participle. In our example, “was” is a form of “to be” and the past participle is “passed.” Forms of “to be” are: was, is, am, are, have been, has, will be, being, and will have been

In that sentence u can hear the word been and has.The passive voice is used to show interest in the person or object that experiences an action rather than the person or object that performs the action. In other words, the most important thing or person becomes the subject of the sentence.In the sentence the most important thing is the city's final hour and the citizens.The way the citizens are described is how the way they reacted during that time

Also i do this in all of my answers now i do something from black panther movie.My favorite line from the movie THIS HOW I BE WHEN I BE ANSWERING QUESTIONS:Okoye:"just dont freeze" Chadwick/Prince(soon to be king;small spoiler) T'challa:What are u talking about..I never freeze. If u watch the movie and say what he said in that accent it will make u think of him and its so fun to do

Bond [772]
I believe that your answer is the first option due to how late the crying is, and unlike in "The Tell-Tale Heart" where the heart is constant and represents the slow descent of madness, the cry of the cat only appears at the end.

The portion of the story where it shows the speaker's madness is actually his looking for and finding similarities in the second cat and wishing to kill it.

Hope this was helpful.
