Answer: A. He does not approve of them.

Thomas Gradgrind is a character in the novel <em>Hard Times</em> by Charles Dickens. He is a mechanized, monotonous person. He loves hard, dry facts and is of an unusual rigidity. His philosophy of calculating rationality does not approve of horse riders. He is a product of the Industrial Revolution, as he believes everything can be mechanized and rationalized, and that people can be trained in a way that they come to resemble machines.

Lilly took her brother Joe to the playground. Another little boy arrived at the playground with his mother. The boy started play
olasank [31]

Answer:

The teeter-totter was shared by the boys.

Explanation:

Passive voice is when the object of the sentence becomes the subject of the sentence. The subject of the sentence then receives the action instead of doing it. Passive voice always includes a form of the verb 'to be' and a particle of the main verb. In the case of the last sentence, the teeter-totter is the object/subject. "Was" is the past tense form of the verb "to be." Shared is the past particle of the verb "share."

So basically, the breakdown is like this:

The teeter-totter  +   was       +   shared by   +  the boys.

       object          past tense    past particle      subject

                            of the verb    of the verb

                               'to be'             'share'

All the other sentences are in active voice as the subject is doing the action. "Lilly took", "Little boy arrived", "The boy started playing" all have the subject in front of the verb.  

Hope this helps. :)

ILL MAKE BRAINIEST PLEASE HELP 120 WORDS Many teens struggle with the idea of what they want to do study and work towards after
algol [13]

Answer: I have always believed in making choices for myself. Asking someone, or letting someone chose my future isn't something i agree with. It's my future, how will i know if this person has my best interests at heart? My future career may be my permanent one, but it will also be mine. I wish to chose a college, and career that will best benefit me, and my life. If anything, I would accumulate more stress from someone choosing my career. For those who worry about what they will chose, let yourself find it. Don't rush into something or let someone chose something that will make you unhappy in the end. Making our own life choices, is within our natural born rights, just as John Locke would say "All mankind... being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty or possessions."  

I hope this helps :)

Hamlet is an indecisive character who cannot bring himself to take any course of action after his father's murder. What theme do
Sergio [31]
As evident in this excerpt from Hamlet, "<span>How can this player be so filled with grief and rage over Priam and Hecuba, imaginary figures whom he doesn’t even know, while I, who have every reason to rage and grieve and seek revenge, am weak, uncertain, and incapable of action?", the theme that Hamlet refers to talks about the fear about the possible outcomes of his actions and meaninglessness of life. </span>
