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.

The correct answer is: A. Dramatic irony.
Negative connotation refers to a meaning that is implied and is not the literal meaning of the word or phrase. Metaphor is an implied comparison between two things that are not related. Personification on the other hand refers to the association of a nature or human characteristics to something that is nonhuman.
Answer:
to explain the feelings of worry experienced by an
immigrant family.
Explanation:
This is the excerpt from Russell Freedman's book "The Immigrant Kids" which tells the story of late 1800s and early 1900s immigrant families arriving in America. Upon arrival, the kids underwent rigorous examinations in order to prevent them from bringing any contagious disease into the country.
However, this excerpt doesn't deal with description of the physical examination; it rather focuses on the fear and constant anxiety triggered by the possibility of a family member being banned from entering the country.
It strongly depicts that family worries never stopped, not even after reaching American soil.
