Dr. Wheeler entered the room and spoke words of advice regarding active verbs. The rebellious class decided that the final paper of the semester would be written entirely in passive voice. The distraught Wheeler made remarks; the students made protests. One student got out of his seat. He stood upon his desk and made a vow that he would never write another active sentence. Wheeler challenged him to a duel. He shed blood. He kicked butts. The students lost lives. People heard the student's shrieks. Concerned people ran down the halls of Henderson. They entered the room and saw carnage. They found Mr. Wheeler standing over the bodies and he spoke the words: "They made mistakes."

Active voice is when the subject of the sentence is doing the verb. Passive voice is when the action verb is done to something, but the subject is not actually capable of doing the action.

write a letter with own words to your friend hira who steadies at x high school in another district describing a prize giving ce
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Number 14 Ajax Street,

New Jersey.

September 10, 2020.

Hey man, how are you doing?

Hope you've finally learned how to play that new video game I sent for you.

Well, remember I told you about a prize giving ceremony I was going to attend in my school? Yes, that one. I was surprised when I won two prizes. One for being well behaved and the other for being the neatest, I wasn't expecting either because I don't think I'm the neatest or best behaved, I just try to avoid trouble and look decent.

You can imagine my shock when I heard my name where I was sitting and all eyes were on me. I walked unsteadily to collect the prize and it was the longest twenty seconds of my life. I was proud of the awards though.

When I get back to town, I'll give you more details. Goodbye, for now.

Your friend,

Michael
