There are two main things to keep in mind when trying to
determine whether a sentence is written in the passive voice or if it is
written in the active voice. First, passive
voice is when the subject has the action done to it, and active voice is when
the subject does the action. Second,
passive voice will always have linking/helping verbs. That said, answers, “A,” “C,” and “D” have
the action being done to the subject, and all three have linking/helping verbs
in the form of “are” and “be.” “B” is
the only answer where the subject (in this case, “people”) is doing the action
of “think” and has not linking/helping verbs.
Kafka uses peculiar and round-about ways of saying things when talking about Gregor in order to convey the complications that Gregor's personality presents. Gregor is a man who is completely controlled by the expectations that society and his family have of him. He knows that he should work hard, be responsible, sacrifice everything for his family and be the breadwinner. These are the expectations that dominate his whole life. The reason why he is so overwhelmed by them is because these stem from his social context, and not from his personal goals or dreams.
Kafka choice of language in this passage reflects this feeling. Gregor is constantly doing what he <em>ought</em> to do, and not what he <em>wants</em> to do or what he believes in. Even when going through extremely frightening and confusing situations, he remembers that what he ought to do is remain calm. And he strives to satisfy this expectation, regardless of what his true feelings might be.
