Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
<u>The Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Naguib Mahfouz in 1988.</u> He was the first Arabic writer to win the prize. Mahfouz was born in Cairo, Egypt, and many of his novels are set in that city. Which revision puts the underlined sentence into the active voice? The 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Naguib Mahfouz. In 1988, the Nobel Prize in Literature was given to Naguib Mahfouz. Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988. The Nobel Prize in Literature was won by Naguib Mahfouz in 1988.
Answer:
Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988.
Explanation:
The underlined phrase features the passive voice. This type of voice causes the subject of the sentence to be receiving the action of the verb and not acting on the action of the verb. If we want to change that phrase to the active voice, we need to use the phrase "Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988." The active voice allows the subject to practice the action of the verb and who is actually acting according to the verb.
The independant clause mean the simple subject which says that you can read a part of a sentence that makes a lot of sense. So in this sentence "Since you are writing a poem, how will you use metaphors?"
The dependent clause is the one that makes no sense while being alone.
In this sentence the dependent clause is Since you are writing a poem.
It makes no sense all alone in one sentence.
Now for the actual question answer is the independent clause.
The independent clause is how will you use metaphors?
I think that is the independent clause because it really makes sense even though it's a part of the question.
It would be B because the underlined part doesn't need anything else added on therefore it is indepedent
