The transition "as a result" should be added to the beginning of the sentence to sum up the argument in the paragraph
Passive voice is used in a clause whose subject is unknown , unimportant , common , or obvious. In passive voice object will replace the subject and subject will be removed.
Active voice is used in a clause or a sentence whose subject expresses the main verb's agent. The subject and the object of the sentence come in it's order in active voice .
Example : People speak spanish in spain => active voice , people is the subject.
Spanish is spoken in spain => passive voice , ( the subject is obvious to us )
The pic above :
number 1 : As you see in that sentence the subject of the sentence (we) has came directly in the sentence so this is an action voice .
number 2 : But in this one when you read the sentence , you immediately ask yourself "who ?" so the subject is unknown therefore this is an passive voice .
I hope it helped.
The figurative language used would be personification because human characteristics were given to something nonliving.
Looks like you already have the question up Lol I'll go ahead and shoot.
In former President Obama's speech, he puts emphasis on the need for immediate action on environmental impact caused by society, he uses persuasive techniques by mentioning examples of environmental impact such as Fiji villagers being forced from their homes due to rising sea levels and melting glaciers in Alaska. It appears that he tries to appeal to peoples feelings and ethics by using pathos and ethos in his argument.
He also appeals to the audiences logic by using logos for example, his mentioning of uninterrupted job growth. While still being able to increase use of clean energy as opposed to unclean energy. And also providing reassurance that there have been successful cases of increasing use of clean energy. He mentions the Paris agreement and it's change for the better in the environment.
