<h3>What is an inference?</h3>
An inference is a conclusion we can get to after analyzing the information we have. After reading the passage provided in the picture, we can infer something about the children and their view of the marigolds in the short story "Marigolds," by Eugenia Collier.
According to the passage, the children disliked the flowers because they were "too beautiful." They lived in an extremely ugly and poor neighborhood, devastated by the Great Depression. The marigolds seem out of place with all their beauty amidst so much ugliness.
With the in mind, we can conclude that the reader can infer the following:

Basically its saying as long as you reach your goal it doesnt matter how you got there. this is my opinion... ever heard of the tortoise and the hare? even tho the tortoise was obviously slower he crossed the finish line because he didnt stop to rest like the hare did
"I finished my research paper two days early."
A good way to determine active vs passive is to ask who performed the action. Did the subject perform the action, or was the action performed "by" the subject?
The subject performs the action in this sentence:
I = [subject]
finished = [action]
my research paper = [thing on which the action was performed]
In the other examples, the subject has an action performed on it.
My research paper = [subject]
was finished/is being finished = [action]
two days early = [time frame information, not really important for the discussion here]
At this point, you have no indication as to who will finish the paper, do you? No. You assume that the paper will be completed "by me," but it could just as easily be completed "by my friend."
If you can add "by [person/thing]" to a sentence, it's passive voice. If you can't, it's not. Clearly, you would never say "I finished my research paper by me."
