Passive voice is sentence construction because the subject is placed to the end of the sentence and thus acted on rather than acting. For example, the dog bit the boy in passive should be, the boy was bitten by the dog.
Passive voice is a useful tool in writing when the writer wants to emphasize that someone is receiving an action and not doing it. For example, Cyrus repaired the bus here bus is the object. In passive voice it should be the bus was repaired.

Which error in the sentence should be corrected when editing?
Luba_88 [7]

The correct answer is A. It is difficult to understand the part of "seven years' transportation to America". It seems to me that you should use a passive structure so as to place the kind of sentences that English courts were allowed to give first, and after mention that the first Penal Transportation Act was the one which introduced this change. The other answers do not apply to this sentence, there are no puntuation and spelling mistakes, and there are no unnecessary words.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A sonnet is a poetic form which was started at the Court of the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II in Palermo, Sicily. The thirteenth century artist and public accountant Giacomo da Lentini is credited with the piece's development and the Sicilian School of artists who encompassed him is credited with its spread.

Each line has 10 syllables. ... For the most part, works are separated into various gatherings dependent on the rhyme plot they follow.

Shan is considered to be a first person narrator because he _____. both tells the story and appears in it tells a story about so
inn [45]
Shan is considered to be a first person narrator because he both tells the story and appears in it.
A first-person narrator would obviously use the first person pronoun (I) to refer to him/herself. So, the entire story is told from this person's point of view, using that particular pronoun. E.g. 'I saw him standing there...' is an example of a first person narration which Shan is an example of. If he were talking about someone else, it would be third-person narration.
