Answer:

Your answer would be that the participial phrase is "talking rapidly" and the word it modifies is the pronoun <em>she.</em>

Explanation:

The participle in the sentence above is "talking rapidly". This participial phrase is a present participial phrase as it ends in -ing. Since all phrases requiere two or more words, participle phrases often include objects and/or modifiers. In this case, the participle phrase contains a modifier, the adverb "rapidly".  What is more, participle phrases always function as adjectives by adding description to the sentence. As you can see, the participle phrase in question premodifies the personal pronoun <em>she. </em>

Change Everybody forgets that to passive voice<br>​
Rus_ich [418]

KiAnswer:

<em>The passive form of EVERYBODY FORGETS THAT </em>

<em>is </em>

<u><em>THAT IS FORGOTTEN BY EVERYBODY.</em></u>

Explanation:


Active Voice -When an action is performed by the subject and is expressed by the verb, it is an active voice. The structure of active voice is - SUBJECT+VERB +OBJECT.

Example- He writes a letter.

Passive-  A letter is written by him

Passive Voice - When the action expressed by the verb is received by the subject, it is passive voice.The structure of Passive Voice is - OBJECT+VERB+SUBJECT.

Example - Food is eaten by him

Active.    - He eats food.

Rules--------

◼️Rule 1. Identify the (S+V+O) Subject, Verb and object in the active sentence to convert to passive voice

Example:

He drives car. (Subject – He, verb – Drives, object – Car)

◼️Rule 2. Interchange the object and subject with each other, i.e. object of the active sentence become the subject of the passive sentence.

Example :

Active voice : She knits sweater. (Subject – She, Verb – Knits, Object – Sweater)

Passive Voice : The sweater is knitted by her. (Object sweater is interchanged with the subject She).

◼️Rule 3. In passive voice sometimes the subject is not used, i.e. the subject in passive voice can be omitted if the sentence without it gives enough meaning.

Example :

Milk is sold in litres

◼️Rule 4. Change the base verb in the active sentence into the past participle ie. third form verb in a passive sentence i.e. preceded by (By, With, to, etc). Base verbs are never used in passive voice sentences.

Example:

Active voice: She prepares dinner.

Passive voice: The dinner is prepared by her

◼️Rule 5. While conversion of Active voice sentence to Passive voice sentence, the pronoun used in the sentence also changes in the following manner.

I will become Me

We will become Us

◼️Rule 6. Use the suitable helping or auxiliary verb (is/am/are/was, etc.). The rules for using auxiliary verbs in passive voice sentences are different for each tense.

Example:

The letter is written by her

A book was not bought by her
