Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. In Brazil, when word came that the harvest was about to begin, a priest came to b

less the mill—and the workers. The blessing was like the whistle at the start of a race, for now everything sped up. Slaves were given long, sharp machetes, which would be their equipment—but for some also their weapons—until the harvest was done. The cutters worked brutal, seemingly endless shifts during the harvest—for the hungry mills crushed cane from four in the afternoon to ten the next morning, stopping only in the midday heat. Slaves had to make sure there was just enough cane to feed the turning wheels during every one of those eighteen hours. How does the authors’ choice of hungry to describe the mills best support the claim? by showing the relentless pace that enslaved people had to keep during the harvest by showing that the mills began to be very productive after the priest’s blessing by showing that enslaved people had to feed the mills every day until there was no cane left by showing that the mills were the best pieces of equipment to produce sugar

Isabel Burnell wanted to impress her classmates with the new doll's house.
MaRussiya [10]
In the sentence:  

Isabel Burnell wanted to impress her classmates with the new doll's house.  

It is a passive type of a sentence, meaning the subject is indirect, with comma, or uses ‘by’ or im this case ‘with’.
Here, the verb used is past while in active sentence, the verb used is in present tense and is direct in giving out information. If the sentence is changed into active form of the sentence, it could be:   <span>Isabel Burnell’s new doll's house impressed her classmates.</span>
