The passive voice is a grammatical "voice". The noun or noun phrase that would be the object of a corresponding active sentence (such as "Our troops defeated the enemy") appears as the subject of a sentence or clause in the passive voice ("The enemy was defeated by our troops").

So the answer would be:

<u><em>A hurricane watch has been issued by the authorities.</em></u>

Passive Voice:

A hurricane watch has been issued by the authorities.

In a passive voice sentence, the subject is being acted upon by the verb issued.

In this sentence the direct object (Hurricane watch) ( has received the action   ( Issued) acted upon by the subject : Authorities .

To identify passive voices, isolate the verb in the sentence and ask who or what is performing the action.

Akimi4 [234]

Celebrating holidays with my family can be kind of classical and plain at the same time. Depending in whether a holiday is popular or no among mi family's relatives, mi parents decide to either celebrate it or not. The reason behind this is that my family is not religious, so we aren't really in new to celebrate anything in particular (that's religiously related). But we still celebrate some holidays such as Christmas for fun!

Describe some of the tactics used by the military to indoctrinate child soldiers, and their lasting effects on Beah in a long wa
TEA [102]

In order to acclimate children to war and mold them into effective killing machines, Lieutenant Jabati and his men employ several different tactics: drugs, pop culture, and several modes of emotional manipulation transform boys into killers. When Beah is about to go on his first raid, he is handed white pills for "energy". These white pills, plus brown brown and marijuana create a constant haze. Ultimately, there is a disconnect from reality when the addiction takes hold. Without the drugs, as in Benin Home, Beah becomes aggressive and the boys resort to raiding the hospital to quell their hunger. When the drugs begin to wear off, Beah's headaches return - as do images of slaughter.

Violent movies, like the drugs, help to create a surreal, dreamlike atmosphere for the boy soldiers. They would often go on attacks in the middle of films like Rambo or Commando, sometimes acting out techniques seen in the movies on the battlefield, and then pick up where they left off when returning to base. The reality of war bleeds into the fiction of war films, which helps to further disconnect the soldiers from the truth of situation. Beah's almost cinematic nightmares feel like a product of this conditioning and only through rehabilitation is he able to confront and discuss his wartime actions.

When he is being trained, Beah learns to channel his rage and seek vengeance for his family. Though he had spent months suppressing his emotions for the sake of survival, Lieutenant Jabati and his men encourage Beah and the boys to tap into the fear and anguish in order to kill. This gives the boys a personal motivation for each kill; though it is unlikely they are targeting the actual rebels who murdered their families. Jabati also exploits his authority by staging contests where the person who kills a prisoner fastest is the "winner". When Beah wins, there is a sense that Jabati is proud of him. In a way, Jabati becomes a father figure to the boys. When Beah and Alhaji are given up to the UNICEF workers, Beah feels betrayed by Jabati. In creating a power dynamic between them, Beah's trust is shattered. It takes the efforts of nurse Esther and other aid workers to begin rebuilding Beah's trust in adults.
