Answer:

In passive sentence constructions, the direct object (the objective or goal) is in the subject position. Active structure puts the actor in the subject position. To find the actor of a sentence, look for the action word – the verb – and figure out who did it. Sometimes, you may need to add an actor to the sentence

Answer:

<h3>When they understood and learned more about the lives of Calpurnia, Boo Radley and Tom Robinson.</h3>

Explanation:

Scout and Jem began to see life from other people's perspective when they understood and learned more about the lives of Calpurnia, Boo Radley and Tom Robinson.

At first, they thought that they were forced to listen to Calpurnia and felt that she was tyrannical. But once they realized how life was hard for Calpurnia, they soon understood the efforts made by Calpurnia to survive as an Africa-American was not easy.

Secondly, Scout and Jem realized that Boo was not as bad as they thought to be. They realized that they were wrong in their judgement and that Boo Radley was, in fact, a good person.

And finally when Scout understood what life was like for Tom Robinson, Scout realized that the society where she lived was corrupted and evil. After learning more about the lives of Calpurnia, Boo Radley and Tom Robinson, Scout and Jem become more mature and understanding than they were before.
