<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

Passive voice is a form of sentence in which the subject of the sentence receives the action, not taking action. Unlike active voice that focuses on the party doing the action (doer of the action), this form is more focused on the party or object that receives the result of an action (receiver of the action).

Generally, active sentences can be transformed into passive sentences in the form of active sentences containing transitive verbs (verbs that require direct objects) such as make, bring, buy, write and so on. Conversely, passive sentences that contain intransitive verbs (verbs that do not require direct objects) such as cry, swim, go, arrive, and die cannot be converted into passive sentences.

However, if the intransitive verbs are followed by prepositions, it is possible that the sentence can be converted into passive sentences but the passive sentences formed will be very rigid.

Passive voice is used to show interest in someone or object that is subject to action and not someone or object that is doing the action. So, the most important thing or person will be the subject of the sentence. Sometimes, we use passive sentences because we don't know or don't want to state who is doing the action. Passive sentences are often used in formal texts. Turning it into an active sentence will make your writing clearer and easier to read. If you want to say who or what is doing an action in a passive sentence, we use the preposition by. When we find out who did the action and are interested in the subject, we better change it to active sentences.

  • Passive infinitive sentences are used after verb modal (verb capital), and other verbs are usually followed by the infinitive.
  • The gerund is used after the preposition, and the verb is usually followed by a gerund.
  • To be born is a passive form and is usually used in the past tense form. However, in some cases, present or future tense can be used.

Which of these in-text citations are formatted correctly​
Oduvanchick [21]

Lidz, Franz. "Revenge of the Vikings." Smithsonian 1 Mar. 2014 44-49. Print.

The correct citation for a Works Cited page begins with the author's name, last name first. Then the title of the article. After the title of the periodical followed by the date and page numbers. In most Works Cited entries, the author's last name is first followed by the title. Just knowing this gets us to the correct answer immediately.

FYI - These are not in-text citations. An in-text citation for this source would be (Lidz 45), if the information was found on page 45.

A dialogue between two people stuck in an elevator
torisob [31]

Answer:

Rahim: As-Salaam-Alaikum; how are you, Jamal?

Jamal: Wa-Alaikum-Salaam; I am fine and what about you?

Rahim: I am also fine by the grace of Almighty Allah. But you did not talk to me for many days. I don’t know why.

Jamal: Actually, My English exam will start after a month. So I am very much worried about it. In fact, I am very weak in written English.

Rahim: English is a foreign language. So, any student may face this problem.

Jamal: How can we face this problem?

Rahim: You know whenever we face any problem, we need a little patience to solve it.

Jamal: I want to discuss the way to solve the problem.

Rahim: English is not our mother tongue. So at first, we are to build up our vocabulary.

Jamal: How can we build up the vocabulary?

Rahim: Word coming is a good system to build up the word stock. It means you will note down the difficult words in a separate copy. After that, consult the dictionary for meaning.

Jamal: Which dictionary is better?

Rahim: Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary of Current English is a useful dictionary.

Jamal: I will purchase it. What more do we need to improve English?

Rahim: For English writing, we have to know structural English as well.

Jamal: What book can we read for this purpose?

Rahim: ‘A Practical English Usage’ by Michael Swan is a good English Grammar book. You may consult it.

Jamal: I’ll purchase the book.

Rahim: We must read English regularly and keep writing on some new topics. This is how we can upgrade our creative faculty.

Jamal: Right you are! If we learn vocabulary and grammar properly, they will indeed help us write any topic correctly.

Rahim: Thanks for sharing.

Jamal: You are most welcome. See you tomorrow.
