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

Explanation:

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.

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

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.

Context clues are the clues that are given by the author to the readers to try and understand meaning of difficult words in context to the text.

Explanation:

Context clues are the hints which are given to the readers of the text by the author to try and understand the meaning of the difficult words keeping in mind the context of the text.

The clue may appear in the same line itself in which the word is. Just because the vocabulary that we gain comes from the reading that we do, we must take advantage of the context clues while we are reading to improve our vocabulary.
