English

Angelina_Jolie [31]3 years ago

An allusion is basically a way to indirectly say something, like "Chocolate was Sarah's Achilles Heel." is allusion, because the phrase "Achilles Heel" means weakness in short, and so its saying that chocolate is Sarah's weakness.

A hyperbole is an exaggeration, like if I said "I am so hungry I could eat a horse!" Obviously I'm not going to actually eat a horse, but its exaggerating how hungry I am

Identify the sentence using the active voice. A. The truck driver was given a ticket by the police officer. B. The truck driver
Serhud [2]

Answer:

C. The police officer gave a ticket to the truck driver.

Explanation:

The subject police is doing the verb - "gave" to the truck driver. And the use of "by" towards the end of the sentence is not valid in active voice. The subject-verb relationship changes in the passive voice. So, while the other three options (A, B and D) all put the subject "police officer" at the end of the sentence, that means it is already in the passive voice, added with the use of "by" in these sentences. So, the correct sentence that is in the active voice is option C.
