We definitely live in uncertain times, i don't think the world has ever really been "stable". Life itself is completely unpredictable. There are stable days, stable moments but never just a stable time period. There are too many corruptions and disasters in the world to consider any time a "stable time". Until the world has complete and total peace, there will not be any stability. As long as the world has terrorism, unstable economies, war, nothing can be described as stable. The times we live in today, more and more art as well as literature are becoming things done by technology. Its not like the things you see in history with Beethoven, Charles Dickens, and many other great writers. There are just too many new concepts. The same goes for art, paper is starting to become replaced by technology little by little but faster and faster.
Its a good story very poggers
It's in passive voice.
A good rule of thumb for cases like this is that if it has any variation of the verb "to be" (is, was, were, etc.) it's passive voice.
If you wanted to switch it to active voice you need to get rid of "is", and this is usually done by switching the subject and the object (so while in the original sentence, the race car is the doing the verb, to switch it you'd need to make the sixteen-year-old boy be the one doing the verb). This new sentence would be something like:
The sixteen-year-old boy drove the racecar
Answer:
The poet develops the theme by:
1. comparing overcoming the hardships in life to weathering a storm.
Explanation:
In "He Had His Dream" by Paul Laurence Dunbar, the speaker describes someone who does not let the difficulties of life determine his fate. Such difficulties are compared, in an extended metaphor, to a storm. Even though the stormy winds are strong enough to almost sink the ship, the man remains strong and hopeful. He tells himself the storm will soon pass, and he will be able to reach his destination when it does. The speaker is thus, comparing overcoming the hardships in life to weathering a storm.
