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>

Lord of the flies, Chapter 6 pages 95-96; summary
Reptile [31]

Answer:

 In these pages what happens is that the children feel frightened because of a "beast". But what is a beast to them turns out to be a person who has died.

Since this person is something they do not know, they are afraid of him.

Explanation:

 This question refers to the story Lord of the flies by William Golding.

At this moment a dead man in a parachute lands on the island. It seems to come from the war. Anyway, the boys believe that the man is the "beast" and begins a chase to find and kill him. Only Simon doubts that such a creature exists and believes that the beast is a part of themselves and that they are only afraid of themselves. He goes into the woods to contemplate the situation as Jack and Ralph climb the mountain and find the beast, but they don't stay long enough to see that it is just a dead man.

One way to punctuate a compound sentence correctly is to join the two independent clauses with
Aleks [24]
Hi,

An independent clause can function as a sentence by itself.

A dependent clause contains subject, and verb, but also contains a dependent marker such as: while, when, because, if, or as.

One way to punctuate a compound sentence correctly is to join the two independent clauses with a semicolon. You can also use a comma and a subordinating conjunction.<span>
