In grammar, passive voice means that the subject is being acted upon.

For example:

"I kicked the ball"

This would be an example of active voice, since the subject (I) is doing an action (kicked) on the object (the ball).

However, take for example:

"The ball was kicked by me"

This would be an example of passive voice, since the new subject (The ball) is having an action done on it (was kicked) by the object (me).

Now that we know the difference between active and passive voice, let's answer these questions:

1. The flowers were bought by me.

2. The new car was bought by my mother.

3. I was rung by Farhia this morning.

4. The food was cooked by her.

5. The children were brought by Ahmed from school.

Often adults show disrespect toward teenagers. Why do you think this happens? How does it affect the teenagers?

olga2289 [7]

In my opinion it;s because adults have a too big of an ego. They wall around with the impression that they're older and know more and we should just listen to them because of that. They feel the need to boss kids around. This affects the teenagers in a way that they get real bad attitudes and in some form, this is peer pressure. They no longer feel comfortable to talk or associate with their parent or any adult. <span />

How does your being male or female influence your family's and peers expectation from you.

Rainbow [258]

I think family and peers expect more from women. As a girl, growing up, I was told not to do certain things a boy did because I should act like a lady. Because my brother dropped from school, my family expects me to graduate and go to college to get a high paying job. I feel like it’s unfair since I’m younger and I get all the pressure of trying to be the successful one in the family.
