Answer:

a. There is one example of a passive voice in the draft.  The passive voice is used in sentences 1.

b. There is only one state-of-being word in the draft.  It is in sentence 8.  In sentence 8, it explains how important workplace fitness is.

c. Sentence 7 contains an expletive.  It is the phrase "don't hesitate to."  The sentence could have been written as "Please, contact me with any questions," without the expletive.

Explanation:

a. Passive voice: In a passive voice, the action is performed on the subject, who receives the action, while in an active voice, the subject performs the action.

b. State-of-being verbs: are linking verbs that identify who or what a noun is or was.  They include "is," "am," "be," "been," "being," "was," "were," and "are."

c. Expletive is an empty word or phrase that conveys no additional or independent meaning.

Need help correcting the errors
mestny [16]
The tense is all mixed up, but it looks like present is used most often, so "emitted" should be changed to "emits" and "pulled" should be changed to "pulls." I can't see the entire paragraph so just make sure that's consistent.

You don't need a comma in "running towards us with the fire extinguisher."

"Your mother and me" should be "Your mother and I." For reference try taking our "your mother" - it sounds pretty silly to say "me thinks" unless you're in the 1600s, right? And it should be "think" instead of "thinks."
