I've found this question online. It is about the text "Union wins a victory at Port Royal Sound, South Carolina," by Carolyn Reeder.

Answer:

The statement that best expresses the central idea of the text is:

B. The Union's success at Port Royal Sound restored their confidence in being able to beat the Confederacy, despite the Confederacy's proven strength.

Explanation:

We usually find the main idea of a text right at the beginning, and this article is no exception. The author tells readers from the get-go that the Confederacy had won the three most important battles after six months of war. No wonder people from the North were worried about how the war was unfolding. However, once the Union successfully took over Port Royal Sound, the North became hopeful, while the Confederacy lost confidence.

Having that in mind, we can choose letter B as the best option:

B. The Union's success at Port Royal Sound restored their confidence in being able to beat the Confederacy, despite the Confederacy's proven strength .

In the space provided, write whether the verb in sentence is active voice or passive voice. Since the second century B.C., India
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Active voice: In the sentence "Indian women <em>have worn</em> saris" '<em>have worn'</em> is an active voice.

Explanation:

In active voice the main subject of the sentence actively performs the verb; hence existence of a subject is mandatory for an active voice. For example, <em>"Indian women have worn saris"</em>, has <em>Indian women</em> as active subject who perform a verb (wear/worn).

In passive voice the stress is on action and not on subject. The subject does not perform an action/verb. For example in <em>"Saris have been worn by Indian women" </em>the subject <em>saris</em> are not performing the action/verb.

The easiest to locate sign of passive voice verb is use of any form of helping verb "be" i.e. is/are/am/was/were/be/been before the third form of principal/main verb. So whenever we find third form of main verb after any form of "be", we can safely identify it as a passive voice.

For example:

Solar eclipse is observed, Snake was killed, Ceremony will be held, Exams have been conducted.

In active voice, if any form of "be" (is/are/was/were/be/been) is used before main verb, it (main verb) will have "-ing" form.

For example:

Monkeys are eating bananas, They will be playing cricket, I was reading a novel.

The First Dance Craze
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Can't seem to find an answer button, but the answer I would assume is C. There wasn't a place in the text directly referring to the answer, however, judging from how many times the fact the walzer was written as disgraceful and awful, peasants would most likely be the ones to dance the walzer because they wouldn't care about customs like that.

I will tell you that it is definitely not B, and A would most likely be wrong as well because the fact that peasants did not associate with members of the upper class has little to do with why only peasant danced the walzer.
