Using this text, and this text only, you are going to make a claim about what you THINK the author’s purpose is. Then, once you

make that claim, you are going to support it with at least two specific examples from the text. Write out your paragraphs (about 2) and submit them to your instructor. Example: Adam Alter’s primary goal is to get teachers to stop using red pens when they grade assignments. We can see this through his evidence he presents in several ways. One appeal he makes is to the teacher’s desire to inspire or motivate their students. One specific example of how red pen might hurt students is when he explains that “the color red activates the right hemisphere of the frontal cortex, a pattern of brain activity that typically indicates ‘avoidance motivation.’”(172). This quote would appeal to teachers because most teachers are hoping to inspire their students to try new things, not crush them. Another reason that goes along with the belief that Alter’s purpose is to get teachers to stop using red pens is when he explains how many more errors people find when using a red pen. That by itself isn’t necessarily enough, but he does go on to state, “unfortunately, red ink is a double-edged sword, also causing students to perform more poorly in the first place”(172). This word choice is something that teachers would not want to associate with their grading necessarily, so they might be inclined to put the red pen down.

What is the effect of the structure on the poem "She Walks in Beauty" by Lord Byron?

Question 5 options:

By establishing a rather basic rhyme scheme in the poem, Byron is able to suggest the speaker's lack of complexity.

By organizing the poem into three short and even stanzas, Byron is able to convey the work's themes directly and succinctly.

By giving the poem an even and steady meter, Byron makes the speaker's great excitement even more obvious.

By breaking the poem into three stanzas, Byron allows readers to follow along as the speaker describes three different women.

BTW your answer is C : They show the speaker's feelings and behavior at the start of her marriage, when she was young and less mature.

A green grocer sells potatoes into passive voice
aliya0001 [1]
Is it you who asks over and over again how to change an active sentence into the passive? I must have seen some 20 such questions.

If so, you really need to learn the difference between a subject and an object, so you stop asking basically the same question again and again.

An active sentence has a subject (person doing something), a verb (what the person does) and either a direct object (the thing that takes the action) or an indirect object (the person receiving the thing that takes the action.

Mary (subject) throws (verb) the ball (direct object) to me (indirect object).

Mary throws me the ball. (Same thing, but in a different word order).

The passive voice simply uses the object (ball) as the subject of the new sentence and the verb is then changed to a past participle* and attached to some firm of “to be”. The original subject can be removed, or added as an afterthought,

So, the ball IS THROWN. The ball IS BEING THROWN. or The ball WAS THROWN — are all passive sentences. You can add Mary at the end with “by Mary”.

Nothing changes if you make it a question.

Is Mary throwing the ball? Passive: Is the ball being thrown (by Mary)?

(Look up the meaning of past participle if you need to).
So now, figure out your own sentence and please stop using Quora over and over again for the same grammar question.
