Is it you who asks over and over again how to change an active sentence into the passive? I must have seen some 20 such questions.

If so, you really need to learn the difference between a subject and an object, so you stop asking basically the same question again and again.

An active sentence has a subject (person doing something), a verb (what the person does) and either a direct object (the thing that takes the action) or an indirect object (the person receiving the thing that takes the action.

Mary (subject) throws (verb) the ball (direct object) to me (indirect object).

Mary throws me the ball. (Same thing, but in a different word order).

The passive voice simply uses the object (ball) as the subject of the new sentence and the verb is then changed to a past participle* and attached to some firm of “to be”. The original subject can be removed, or added as an afterthought,

So, the ball IS THROWN. The ball IS BEING THROWN. or The ball WAS THROWN — are all passive sentences. You can add Mary at the end with “by Mary”.

Nothing changes if you make it a question.

Is Mary throwing the ball? Passive: Is the ball being thrown (by Mary)?

(Look up the meaning of past participle if you need to).
So now, figure out your own sentence and please stop using Quora over and over again for the same grammar question.

e-lub [12.9K]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>A. Their location just outside the city of Rome made them urgent centers of political power. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The renaissance effects increased the literature and emphasized on the human and individual being. It also increased the willingness of satirizing the institution that was already in existence, for instance, the state and the church.

The initial poets influence the poetry art through the inspirational drama that was played by the Greeks and the Romans. This, therefore, led innovation that people mostly concentrated on different mysteries of nature that later promoted political power in the major centers.

"Thy husband is thy lord, thy life, thy keeper,
vampirchik [111]

Thy husband is thy lord, thy existence, thy keeper, is William Shakespeare.   Lucentio throws a feast to have fun the 3 current marriages in Padua: Petruchio to Kate, Lucentio to Bianca, and Hortensio to the widow he had spoken of before.

A banquet is held to celebrate three marriages: Kate and Petruchio, Bianca and Lucentio, and the widow and Hortensio. After some witty banter, the men start arguing approximately which of them has the more obedient wife. Petruchio proposes a guess: the man whose spouse comes when she's referred to as will win the wager.

Katherine Act five, Scene 1 of The Taming of The Shrew, Lucentio and Bianca marry. Vicentio, Lucentio's actual father, comes to Padua and meets with Tranio posing as Lucentio, and a pedant instructional purist  posing as him. Lucentio's plan sooner or later comes undone. Lucentio and Bianca express regretto their fathers.
