Most business writing employs active sentences to improve readability. One way to immediately improve your writing is to use act

ive rather than passive voice in most sentences.
Active voice and passive voice contain the following grammatical patterns:
Active voice: Doer as Subject + Verb + Object
Passive voice: Object as Subject + Be Verb + Verb + Doer (Optional)

Using active voice in writing includes many benefits. The doer–action–object pattern allows for faster processing because most people's natural thinking occurs in this way. It also emphasizes the business orientation of action. Perhaps most important, it specifies the doer. Since business activities depend on accountability and coordination, knowing the identity of the doer of an action is usually important. In most cases, active voice also makes your sentences more concise.

Generally, active sentences are most effective in business writing. Passive sentences, however, are more effective when you want to avoid blaming or sounding bossy. Identify whether below sentences are in active or passive form. You will also evaluate whether active or passive form is most appropriate for each sentence.

a. We provide
b. Option to change
c. Contract is provided
d. Forms that are completed
e. Avoid careless errors
f. Financing reps will work
g. Reps determined
h. You are provided
i. You can manage
j. Your application

Answer:Active sentences are: We provide (least appropriated), Option to change (most appropriated) , Avoid careless errors (most appropriated), Financing reps will work (most appropriated), reps determined (least appropriated), You can manage (most appropriated), Your application. (most appropriated)

Passive sentences are: Contract is provided (most appropriated), forms that are completed (least appropriated), You are provided. (most appropriated)

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the sentences to analyze or the chart to categorize them, here are the chart and the sentences in the picture.

There are some differences between active and passive sentences beyond the structures given, for instance, the passive sentences will focus on the objects as the main element of the sentence, the passive sentences sometimes make a message difficult to read, and they are used in most of the sentences that have inanimate objects.

Identify the adverb phrase and the word it modifies in the following sentence:
mariarad [96]
In my opinion, the correct answer is <span>B) for Halloween // is decorated</span>. Adverb phrases are extended adverbs or phrases that function like adverbs, modifying the sentences' predicates. They tell us how, when, where, why the verb action is performed. In this case, the predicate is is decorated. We can ask the mental question: why or what for is the house decorated? The answer to this question would be for Halloween. And that is our adverb phrase. It shouldn't be confused with an adjective phrase "down the street", which describes the subject "the house".
