<span>"Have you ever been taken to the State Fair?" is passive.
"</span><span>The team won the state championship." is active.
To differentiate is really easy! Passive voice is constructed by using "to be" and past participle (e.g. bought, cost, made, done, etc.) and put enfasis on the action, not on the person who did/does it.</span>
<span>We usually drop the 'e' at the end of words when adding an ending that begins with a vowel suffix (e.g. -ing, -ed, -er, -able, -ous, ).</span><span>But with words ending in 'ge' keep the 'e' before 'able' to keep the soft 'ge' sound-
manageable, changeable, knowledgeable...
<span>We also keep the 'e' in words ending in 'ce' before 'able' to keep the soft 'c' ( "s") sound-
noticeable, replaceable, serviceable...
<span>Another exception to the rule is the final -e is not dropped from words ending in: -ee, -oe, -ye.
see - seeing, agree - agreeing, canoe - canoeist, dye - dyeing</span></span></span>

John F. Kennedy was an avid supporter of immigration. From the late 1800’s to the 1920’s the majority of the population was dedicated to immigrants coming to America in search of a better life. Many of these immigrants worked hard labor and dedicated many new ideas and inventions to the industry. Breakthrough technologies were introduced by immigrant backgrounds. Kennedy refused to let there be a second class in the caste system, he believed from the start that all men were equal no matter their origins. Immigrations greatly impacted the interpretation and attitudes of society, the work industry, and American History. Much of these reasons are the very ones that Kennedy recognized, and refused to let a democracy be the judge of taking away civil rights from those of a different country.
Answer:
The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze, and then they bought a pumpkin.
Explanation:
Firstly, let's see if all the revised sentences make grammatical sense.
1. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze, and then they bought a pumpkin.
Sentence one is grammatically correct as it uses and to connect the two clauses.
2. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze; bought a pumpkin.
Sentence two is not grammatically correct as it has an unnecessary semi-colon with a dependent clause.
3. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze, they bought a pumpkin.
Sentence three does not use and to join the two clauses.
4. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze; and then they bought a pumpkin.
Sentence four like sentence two uses an unnecessary semi-colon that does not follow the semi-colon rule.
A semi colon should be used to join two independent clauses or to replace (and, or, but,etc)
Hope it isn't confusing, and it helped! :))
