Answer: Choice #2 (<em>He peered at me from the other side of the room.)</em>

Explanation:

The four verbs are <em>looked</em>, <em>peered</em>, <em>sat</em>, and <em>was </em>for sentences 1-4 respectively.

Out of those four verbs, <em>sat </em>and <em>was </em>are extremely basic, common, and uninteresting verbs.

<em>Peered </em>is a more powerful synonym to <em>looked, </em>thus making it the vivid verb.

Hope this helps! Have a great day!

"Nobody steals it" to passive voice.<br><br>Wrong answers will be reported.​
olganol [36]

Answer:

"Nobody steals it" in the passive voice is: It is stolen by nobody.

Explanation:

When changing a sentence from the active to the passive voice, the first step is to find the object of the verb and transform it into the subject of the new sentence. In this case, the object is "it".

Secondly, we must identify the main verb and its tense. In this case, it is "steals", in the simple present. We must now add the auxiliary verb to be in the same tense, but agreeing with the new subject "it".

Finally, the subject of the active voice - "nobody", in this sentence - becomes the agent of the passive voice, preceded by "by". Having those instructions in mind, we can safely transform the sentence we were given:

- "Nobody steals it" = It is stolen by nobody.

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Most people have more bravery and wisdom in them than they know.

Explanation:

Bilbo is a hobbit, which means he is a small creature without much influence in the universe created by Tolkien, in his book "Hobbit". Bilbo is not influential, not even in his own society, however, he participates in a great adventure to protect and help all the beings that exist in this universe, showing himself to be a being of great courage and wisdom, even though his appearance and reputation say the opposite.

These qualities are not recognized in Bilbo, even by himself, but Gandalf, a powerful and influential wizard, declares, in the field of men and elves, that there is more to Bilbo than meets the eye, highlighting the theme "most people have more courage and wisdom of what they know. "
