Answer: dreams and ambition by using metaphors.
Explanation: As you know, a metaphor is acomparison between things that are not related with each other at first sight, that is why that In the given excerpt from Act II of "Hamlet" by William Shakespeare, we can see the use of metaphors to compare and describe dreams (by comparing them to ambition and shadow: "Which dreams, indeed, are ambition" and "A dream itself is but a shadow") and ambition (by comparing it to a shadow's that can be: "and I hold ambition of so airy and light a quality that it is but a shadow’s shadow".

Emily Dickinson's poetry is generally inclined towards loneliness and desire. Her theme includes death and immortality. The death portion dwells <span>on death as possible depletion of the being, wondering whether the soul concedes to death, to whether what co</span><span>ncerns with people's lives and destinies and the </span><span>strong beliefs of mankind to immortality, too. </span>
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. :)
