Answer:
here is the passage so you can put in your own words.
Explanation:
Androcles
A slave named Androcles once escaped from his master and fled to the forest. As he was wandering about there he came upon a lion lying down, moaning and groaning. At first he turned to flee, but finding that the lion did not pursue him, he turned back and went up to him. As he came near, the lion put out his paw, which was all swollen and bleeding, and Androcles found that a huge thorn had got into it and was causing all the pain. He pulled out the thorn and bound up the paw of the lion, who was soon able to rise and lick the hand of Androcles like a dog. Then the lion took Androcles to his cave, and every day used to bring him meat from which to live. But shortly afterwards,both Androcles and the lion were captured, and the slave was sentenced to be thrown to the lion, after the latter had been kept without food for several days. The Emperor and all his Court came to see the spectacle, and Androcles was led out into the middle of the arena. Soon the lion was let loose from his den and rushed bounding and roaring toward his victim. But as soon as he came near to Androcles, he recognized his friend, fawned upon him, and licked his hands like a friendly dog. The Emperor, surprised at this, summoned Androcles to him, who told him the whole story. Whereupon the slave was pardoned and freed, and the lion let loose to his native forest. Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.

In the active voice, the subject performs the action stated by the verb, and the subject usually takes place before the verb. The word/words in Italics are the subjects, and they have taken place before the verb written in bold types in the passage quoted from the question.
<em>I</em> had never felt so alone. <em>The wide sweep of the Andes</em> stretched in front of me, a seemingly infinite expanse of ice and rock. <em>The air</em> cut into my cheeks, and blinded me, as<em> I</em> stood unsteadily looking down on the valley below. Then, for a moment, <em>the skies</em> cleared above me, and <em>I</em> saw a single, solitary condor rise on the breeze, effortless and free. <em>I </em>would be that condor. <em>I</em> would rise above my despair.
I think the answer is clear.
