Confinement in Persepolis
pshichka [43]

<span>it's easy to take certain freedoms for granted: freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom to wear white shoes after Labor Day. Many times, we don't notice our freedoms until they're gone. This is what happens to the people of Iran in the 1980s, when Marjane Satrapi's story begins. Revolutionaries who speak out against the regime are executed; everyone is expected to dress as though they are Muslim fundamentalists, especially women who need head-to-toe coverings and a veil.</span>

The public shall be notified by the bureau of a proposed action (in active voice)
miskamm [114]

Answer:

  • <u><em>The bureau shall notify the public of a proposed action.</em></u>

Explanation:

The original sentence is in passive voice: the public is not performing the action but receiving it. The passive voice uses the verb 'to be' + the past participle of the main verb: "shall be" + "notified".

The focus of a passive voice sentence is on the object and not on the subject: the public is the object; they will receive the act of the subject which is the bureau.

To change the passive voice to <em>active voice</em>, place the person who performs the action in the first part and change the tense of the verb to active form.

The subject that performs the action is the bureau.  Thus, the active voice is:

  • <u>The bureau shall notify the public of a proposed action.</u>

<u></u>

Now, the focus of the sentence is on who performed the action; thus, this is the <em>active voice</em>.

Locate the complete adjective phrase and the noun modified.
Tom [10]

Answer:

Adjective Phrase:  of the children

Modified Noun: voices

Explanation:

An adjective phrase is a group of words that describes a noun or a pronoun in a particular sentence. This phrase can be placed both before and after the noun it describes.

Adjective phrases usually contain adjective(s), but there are some exceptions. In some cases, a preposition (as in this case) or an adverb can be used to modify the noun. In this sentence, the adjective phrase<em> ''of the children''</em> points back to the noun<em> ''voices.'' </em>The modified noun is, therefore, <em>''voices''.</em>
