Her early interest in airplanes foreshadowed her later career as a pilot. The hero's predicament is foreshadowed in the first chapter.
The last sentence is correct, because the other ones either had periods in the middle or too many commas in them.
A transitive verb demands an object, such as in the following case: She is reading a book. The verb <em>to read </em>demands the direct object <em>a book </em>which is why it is transitive.
On the other hand, intransitive verbs do not need an object to complete them, such as in the case: She is sleeping.
In the sentence above, the verb <em>was </em>is a past tense of the verb <em>to be, </em>and it is used as a linking verb in the sentence, connecting the first part with the adjective <em>beautiful. </em>Since there is no object in the sentence, the correct answer is <u>intransitive</u>.
Is it you who asks over and over again how to change an active sentence into the passive? I must have seen some 20 such questions.
If so, you really need to learn the difference between a subject and an object, so you stop asking basically the same question again and again.
An active sentence has a subject (person doing something), a verb (what the person does) and either a direct object (the thing that takes the action) or an indirect object (the person receiving the thing that takes the action.
Mary (subject) throws (verb) the ball (direct object) to me (indirect object).
Mary throws me the ball. (Same thing, but in a different word order).
The passive voice simply uses the object (ball) as the subject of the new sentence and the verb is then changed to a past participle* and attached to some firm of “to be”. The original subject can be removed, or added as an afterthought,
So, the ball IS THROWN. The ball IS BEING THROWN. or The ball WAS THROWN — are all passive sentences. You can add Mary at the end with “by Mary”.
Nothing changes if you make it a question.
Is Mary throwing the ball? Passive: Is the ball being thrown (by Mary)?
(Look up the meaning of past participle if you need to).
So now, figure out your own sentence and please stop using Quora over and over again for the same grammar question.
