Answer: Word choice: The sales manager is <u>aggressive</u>.

The sales manager is <u>bossy</u>   The sales manager is <u>assertive</u>. The underlined words are synonyms with generally the same denotation, but they have different connotations.

Active or passive voice:  The construction workers destroyed the trees when they replaced the sidewalk. (Active, and focuses on the workers)

The trees were destroyed by the construction workers when they replaced the sidewalk. (Passive, focuses on the trees)
