Which sentences are written in passive voice?

English
1 answer:
Lorico [155]3 years ago
4 0

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.

Explain what Beowulf is preparing to do at the beginning of section XXI, and describe what values underlie his decision. Cite te
Mnenie [13.5K]
Beowulf is preparing to kill Grendel's mother and restore order by avenging Aeschere and putting an end to the blood feud. His heroic view of life is that it is better to die with the glory of avenging our friends, than to live and wait for the life to end naturally, in peace. That is a true warrior's destiny: "Each of us all must his end abidein the ways of the world; so win who mayglory ere death! When his days are told,that is the warrior’s worthiest doom."
