English
1 answer:
Dafna1 [17]4 years ago
3 0
In the story "The Catcher in the Rye", Holden lied to Marty. It doesn't seem to him like the wrong thing to do. But he does it just have a little fun on the side. Telling that he can do it even for hours, is a joke that he pulled off to make talks lighter and not get too serious in the conversation.

Anyway, he regrets his lie when he said he saw Gary Cooper that made Marty really sad of not seeing this actor.

A transitive verb with a direct object is in the ____ voice.<br>active<br>passive<br>subjunctive​
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Active and passive voice.

Explanation:

First I would like to note that there is not such thing as subjunctive voice. You can say that the verb is in the subjunctive mood (no matter what the voice is).

A verb is transitive if it takes a direct object and therfore it can be used in either passive or active voice.
