When writing a paper you should try to avoid passive voice. It is hard not to use passive voice at times. If you can just keep  the usage at a minimum in your papers. Being in college I have not had a problem with English teachers (a really hard teacher my first and third semester) deducting points from my paper when using passive voice. What I do is put my paper through Grammarly just to see what kind of errors I have in my paper and fix them. If you have an account with Grammarly they will show you where you made mistakes but because I don't I had to find where my mistakes were. It is a very helpful website. Hopefully I helped.

Why is Caesar considered a round character in The Tragedy of Julius Caesar?
AlexFokin [52]
<span>He is considered a round character as opposed to a flat character because he is portrayed to have more depth than a character that might show up in one scene. This requires giving us time and information to know him. Think of a round character as you or a member of your family and a flat character as somebody you just met at the grocery store. Yes, their might be more to the person at the grocery store but you only are seeing so little that you only know them as another person. So, the correct answer is - Caesar is multifaceted: he is stubborn and proud, and the plebeians adore him, while the senators hate him. His story line is essential to the plot.</span>

I have to create a short story to read to the entire class by next Tuesday what should it be about. NO INAPPROPRIATE ANSWERS!!!!
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

World War II was considered to be the bloodiest conflict in recorded history. When surrounded by more death than is realistically imaginable, one soldier was able to use music as a way to communicate what no words could.

On a muddy evening two weeks after D-Day, Jack Leroy Tueller and his crew were waiting anxiously for the last German sniper that was watching them be eliminated. Feeling stressed, Tueller pulled out his trumpet to calm down, despite the wishes of his Commander.

Believing that the sniper was likely feeling just as scared and alone as they were, he decided to play out a famous German love song to try and ease the mutual tension. Sure enough, a military police truck drove up to their camp the following morning containing some recently captured prisoners, one of which was the last sniper. After inquiring about who the trumpet player was, he explained that the song made him think about his family back home in Germany, and he could not bring himself to fire after hearing it and gave himself up instead.

Music, it seems, can heal and inspire more than one type of mind wound. It strengthens the mind, inspires memories, and comforts the distressed.

Explanation:

Hope this helps :)
