They expected us to built the road.​in passive voice

English
1 answer:
GREYUIT [131]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The road was expected to be built by us.

Explanation:

First, identify the direct subject of this sentence, which is <u>they</u>. Remember to always change things in the independent clause. Then place the indirect object of the sentence at the beginning, which is <u>the road</u> in this case.

Because you can't exactly write "the road was expected to be built by us by them," completely rule out the word <u>them</u>. Now, switch things around until they make the same meaning (except wordier), and voila - you are done.  

Note: most of the time, passive voice is wordy and hard to read, so stick with active voice for other writing.

Hope this helps! :)

Which sentence contains an incorrectly punctuated appositive or appositive phrase?
Mnenie [13.5K]


D. is wrong. It should be "One hero in the animation field is Mel Blanc, the voice behind many cartoon characters." because the information after Mel Blanc is not necessary to the sentence. It's just extra, so you need a comma.
