The PTA is an association whose objective is to improve the way students learn. In this way, I will write an example of a speech that could be given in front of this association.
Explanation:
"I am in front of you to talk about what matters most to all of us and why we are here: the education of our children.
Students are the future of the nation, they are the next generation, and we must take care to improve their learning environment to ensure that they succeed.
Below I have written what our school needs to improve:

- Reduce the number of students in classrooms.

- More funds.
We must work together to make all of this happen so that our children can succeed in the future. "
This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:
How does Chaucer characterize the young man speaking in this passage?
A. as uncomfortable
B. as loyal
C. as deceitful
D. as innocent
Answer:
Chaucer characterizes the young man:
C. as deceitful
Explanation:
When we call someone deceitful, we mean that person is false, untruthful, untrustworthy. Notice that Chaucer shows the young man is deceitful through the character's own words. He knows he is supposed to split the gold between the three of them. However, once the youngest is gone to town, he proposes to the other man that they split it only between the two of them. He clearly cannot be trusted. Therefore, letter C is the best option for this question.
Answer: Sentences 2, 4 and 5 are written in passive voice.
Explanation:
We use passive voice when we want to put an emphasis on the action and the object, rather than subject. In other words, subject is either insignificant in that particular case, or we do not know who/what the subject is. The object from the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive sentence.
For example, active sentence is: <em>One of my favorite authors wrote </em><em><u>that book</u></em>, while passive sentence is: <em><u>That book</u></em><em> was written by one of my favorite authors</em>.
We form passive from the auxiliary verb (often verb <em>to be</em>) and past participle.
