Answer: um Personification is the attribution to human qualities or feelings to things that are not human.

Read the following passive sentence:
kramer

The correct transformation of the passive sentence into an active sentence is:

  • The expedition in Mongolia made the discovery of the first recognized examples of dinosaur eggs.

<h3>What is a Passive Sentence?</h3>

In grammatical construct, a passive sentence is a sentence that does not make use of the subject to perform the action of the verb.

To change a passive sentence into an active sentence, take note of the rule:

  • We need to locate the word "by the..." phrase or think about who or what is executing the activity represented in the verb
  • Then, make that agent the sentence's subject, then alter the verb to match.

So, the correct Active sentence becomes:

  • The expedition in Mongolia made the discovery of the first recognized examples of dinosaur eggs.
