Answer:

The American Soldiers are portraied as the mithologycal beast, the Chimera.

Explanation:

The Chimera (Chímaira) is a hybrid being of Greek mythology with the ability to throw flames through its nose. It was also the sibling of Lerna's Hydra, Cerberus, and other mythological monsters.

The Chimera was a figure with the body of a lion, and three heads, one also of lion, one of goat and one of dragon. This scary monster still had a pair of wings and a tail, which was actually a snake's.

Though such an amazing monster, the Chimera was treated like a pet by the king of Caria, but one day she escaped and went to live on a Lycian mountain.

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>.

The boy with the yellow hair ran home.<br> a. adjective<br> b. adverb
Mashcka [7]
As for this problem, the answer would be most probably and most likely to be A. adjective.

The sentence that says "the boy with the yellow hair ran home" is a simple sentence. Adjectives describe nouns and pronouns while adverbs describe the verbs, other adjectives, and other adverbs. As you can notice, the yellow would be describing the hair of the boy and the phrase "with the yellow hair" pertains to the boy. So the most probable answer to this question would be A. adjective.
