Major Kovaloff can best be described as proud. He is very proud of his station and his rank, and wants everyone to respect him for it. In the story, it says "He did not so much mind people making personal remarks about him, but it was a different matter when aspersions were cast on his rank or social standing." This shows that he cares very much about his rank and dislikes when people aren't as respectful as he thinks they should be.

He was clearly insecure and very caught up on his own title. It is noticeable, also, how futile he is.

<em>"He had been a collegiate assessor for only two years and therefore could not forget it for  a single minute. To make himself sound more important and to give more weight to his  status he never called himself collegiate assessor, but ‘Major’."</em>

You might say that he was proud of his rank because of the following text:

<em>"He did not so much mind people making personal remarks about him, but it was a different matter when aspersions were cast on his rank or social standing."</em>

But in the end, he would even change what to be called to make himself more important, showing again his own desire of being more than what he is, his insecurity and futility.

We played all day, talked all night, and generally enjoyed one another's company. How would the above sentence, written in activ
USPshnik [31]
To answer this question, we first have to be clear about what the passive voice is.

In the active voice, the subject is also the one who does the action. For example: I kicked the ball. In this sentence, the subject is "I." The subject is performing the action of kicking. 

In the passive voice, however, the subject is not the doer. Instead, the subject of the sentence is acted upon. Consider this example: The ball was kicked by me. The subject is "the ball." Of course, the ball is not doing the kicking. Rather, the ball is being acted upon -- it is being kicked BY someone.

A major clue that the passive voice is being used is the presence of a being verb. A being verb is any form of the verb "to be" -- am, is, are, was, were, be, being, or been.

Now, in the above examples, only option B. appears to have a being verb. However, let's double check.

In the other options, the pronoun "We" is the subject, and "we" are the ones playing, talking, and enjoying. That means answers A, C, and D. are all rewritten in the active voice.

In option B, "Play," "talk" and "a good time" are the subjects of the sentence. Of course, these things can do nothing on their own. This sentence also has being verbs present (the verb "was"), meaning this sentence is written in the passive voice.

For this reason, option B. is the correct answer.

Maksim231197 [3]

As we know, we live in a society that sets standards all the time in any possible field. We have aesthetic, academic, professional, behavioral standards and many others. When we do not fit this pattern we feel excluded and we have difficulty accepting ourselves, for this reason, we have difficulty socializing and we start to think that we must change who we are in order to "fit in" and not be a lonely person and without any company .

It is no different with me, I do not fit the standard of beauty that society imposes. This affected my self-esteem and I was extremely unhappy and dissatisfied with my own image. This dissatisfaction isolated me from everything and everyone, I could not establish any kind of relationship with anyone, because I was so dissatisfied with me that I felt that I would be rejected by everyone.

My parents, concerned about my situation, proposed that I go to therapy so that I could better deal with these negative feelings around myself. It was not easy to change this view, but little by little I managed to improve and see that I don't need to fit into unreachable standards and that I could be who I am and focus on my qualities. It is not easy today, but I try to take it one step at a time, with the certainty that paranoias in my head should not be adopted as truth, but should be debated and help me to build a better conception of myself.
