I need to know in what before I can answer.
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
<u>The Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Naguib Mahfouz in 1988.</u> He was the first Arabic writer to win the prize. Mahfouz was born in Cairo, Egypt, and many of his novels are set in that city. Which revision puts the underlined sentence into the active voice? The 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Naguib Mahfouz. In 1988, the Nobel Prize in Literature was given to Naguib Mahfouz. Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988. The Nobel Prize in Literature was won by Naguib Mahfouz in 1988.
Answer:
Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988.
Explanation:
The underlined phrase features the passive voice. This type of voice causes the subject of the sentence to be receiving the action of the verb and not acting on the action of the verb. If we want to change that phrase to the active voice, we need to use the phrase "Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988." The active voice allows the subject to practice the action of the verb and who is actually acting according to the verb.
This is the metaphor: “But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice.”
According to the narrator - Geoffrey Chaucer- A GROUP OF PILGRIMS, "sundry folk" arrived at the inn.
Each pilgrim is described in the Prologue of the book. ( A pilgrim is a traveler sho is on a journey to a holy place. In this case, to Canterbury, where the shrine of Thomas Beckett is).
Chaucer describes their condition, their social decree and their array. Among the pilgrims there are a knight, a squire, a cook, a carpenter, a doctor of physic, a wife of Bath, etc.
At the end of the Prologue, the host proposes a story telling contest: each pilgrim will have to tell 2 stories on the way to Canterbury and two on the way back.
That's why the title of the book is the "Canterbury Tales"
