Wishing her a merry Christmas filled with love joy and happiness. You can write a kind sentence about her son. You can complement his mom to make her feel special.
D. It's the only example given that used "sound" words.
Answer:
B. The people's lives are difficult, but they pretend to feel joy when others can see.
Explanation:
Paul Laurence Dunbar's poem "We Wear the Mask" refers to or talks about people who hide behind a mask to show the side that people want to see. But deep beneath the mask of happiness and smile that people can see, there is pain and suffering and crying, which is hidden so well by the mask.
The speaker talks about suffering which <em>"hides our cheeks and shades our eyes"</em>. He then went on to state <em>"We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries / To thee from tortured souls arise."</em> And when he says <em>"We sing, but oh the clay is vile / Beneath our feet, and long the mile;" </em>he seems to say that <u>despite the hardships faced by them, they will pretend to be joyful and show a happy face that everyone expects and wants to see</u>, and he will hide his true feelings behind the mask.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
In grammar, passive voice means that the subject is being acted upon.
For example:
"I kicked the ball"
This would be an example of active voice, since the subject (I) is doing an action (kicked) on the object (the ball).
However, take for example:
"The ball was kicked by me"
This would be an example of passive voice, since the new subject (The ball) is having an action done on it (was kicked) by the object (me).
Now that we know the difference between active and passive voice, let's answer these questions:
1. The flowers were bought by me.
2. The new car was bought by my mother.
3. I was rung by Farhia this morning.
4. The food was cooked by her.
5. The children were brought by Ahmed from school.
