Answer:
The letter <u>was written</u> yesterday.
Explanation:
Yesterday is a keyword that indicates the action happened and ended. Therefore, we have to use past simple tense.
That leaves us with <u>wrote</u> and <u>was written</u> choice. Last two choices are past perfect and they should only be applied when there consists of past tense in one clause —> e.g I had eaten rice before I went to bed.
Next, we have to understand between active voice and passive voice.
Active Voice
Subject + Verb + Object
An example of active voice is:
- I eat rice.
- I write a book.
- I hit a desk.
On the other hand, we have:
Passive Voice
Object + verb to be/have + been (if there is) + past participle + by subject (if there is)
An example is:
- Rice is eaten by me.
- A book is written by me.
- A desk is hit by me.
Active voice starts with subject causing something to object.
Passive voice starts with object being caused something by subject.
And we know that a letter cannot write itself so it cannot be a subject but an object.
Hence, the letter was written yesterday is correct, indicating that the letter was being done and not letter doing.

Answer:
Explanation:
The most valuable resource that we as living beings have is "Time". Everyone has a very finite amount of time to live our lives. This makes every second incredibly valuable. Being able to travel larger and larger distances faster than ever before gives us the gift of time (in a way) by allowing us to spend less time travelling and/or waiting to get to our destinations. This makes travelling at faster speeds invaluable and the process of achieving this a great use of our time.
