Answer: The story is told of a miner in a hospital who was about to die.

Explanation:

<em>To identify passive voice, we have to look at what happened and look at who was responsible for doing it. Since the person or responsible for doing the action is omitted, and we see a past participle of a transitive verb straight after the form of verb “to be”, then we know that the sentence is written in passive voice.</em>

<em>The transitive verb “to tell” takes its direct object, “the story”, as the subject of the passive construction. </em><em>“The story” is told. </em>

<em>This sentence does not mention who tells the story of the miner, because we use the passive voice when it is not so important ( or unknown ) who or what did the action.</em>

Rene Descartes

Explanation:

Rene Descartes (31 March 1596 – 11 February 1650) was a French philosopher, scientist, and mathematician.  

Descartes determined a single first principle: I think.

In Discourse on the Method and Principles of Philosoph is explained like this : "Thought cannot be separated from me, therefore, I exist".

This is known as cogito ergo sum (in English: "I think, therefore I am").

Descartes concluded that, if he doubted, then, something or someone must be doing the doubting, therefore the fact that he doubted proved his existence.
