You are using subterfuge correctly

Yes, although I would have added her goal in doing that in the sentence. For example: She bribed her husband’s doctor into the subterfuge of giving him medicine that was actually poison; so that she could get all of his money.

Write a 2 Page Note on The Language & Style of The Good Morrow Poem.

kogti [31]

Answer:

“The Good Morrow” is an aubade—a morning love poem—written by the English poet John Donne, likely in the 1590s. In it, the speaker describes love as a profound experience that's almost like a religious epiphany. Indeed, the poem claims that erotic love can produce the same effects that religion can. Through love, the speaker’s soul awakens; because of love, the speaker abandons the outside world; in love, the speaker finds immortality. This is a potentially subversive argument, for two reasons. First, because the poem suggests that all love—even love outside of marriage—might have this transformative, enlightening effect. Second, because of the idea that romantic love can mirror the joys and revelations of religious devotion.

Identify whether this sentence is written in active or passive voice. Spectators filled the stadium

Paul [167]

Answer:

Active.

Explanation:

First one must recognize the difference between active versus passive voice. Active voice is where the subject is put before the predicate, and passive is where the predicate ie put before the subject.

Example:

Sally drove her car. --> Active voice, because subject is first.

Subject predicate

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The car was driven by Sally --> Passive voice, because predicate is first.

predicate Subject

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Furthermore, you can break down the predicate into the object and action. Using the same example below...

Sally drove her car --> Active, because subject is first.

subject action object

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The car was driven by Sally--> Passive, because action and object are first.

Object action Subject

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In your example, your subject (Spectators) are first and your action and object (filled the stadium) are second. Therefore, it is active voice. (also, remember that your action and object can be combined to form the predicate.)

Hope this helps!

What type of breakfast offers black pudding, mushroom and tomato or baked beans?

Gennadij [26K]

The answer to this is A. "English breakfast." I actually knew this from the top of my mind, but if you want to double check, go search the English breakfast. (I wouldn't suggest trying this meal though. Search the ingredients for black pudding, and you'll never want to try it. Let me put it that way.)

This breakfast is offered in Britain. Mainly England, but it can also be eaten in Scotland and perhaps, Ireland.
