Answer:
4). At the skyscraper, we watched them in action building their masterpiece.
Explanation:
As per the question, option 4 displays the sentence that is written in active voice as the subject/doer is accomplishing the action expressed by the verb in the sentence which is contrary to the sentence written in passive voice which involves a subject that receives the action or being acted upon(by the verb). Options 1, 2, and 3 emphasizes the object('the skyscraper visit', 'the museum', and 'those works of art') instead of the subject which implies that they are the recipient of the action. Thus, only option 4 contains the subject 'we' that is performing the action 'watched' rather then receiving it. Therefore, <u>option 4</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
A. After sentence 17. Read closely. Lemme know if this was right. Gracias!

Answer and Explanation:
How are the Games used to maintain control over the districts?
The Hunger Games are a display of power. The Capitol established the Games after the districts attempted a rebellion. Now, people from each district are forced to compete and fight to death. By doing this, the Capitol makes it clear that it has the power to kill, if it wishes. So much so that people would rather risk having their own kids' names drawn to the deadly Games than fighting for freedom. It is as if they think it is better to lose one or two with a certain frequency than battling and losing thousands of lives at once, not seeing that such a sacrificial ritual will never lead to change.
Conversely, how are the Games used to keep the Capitol happy and content?
The Games keep the people in the Capitol entertained. While people in the districts barely survive each day, in the Capitol they have too much of everything. Not having to starve, hunt, work, fight to live, they become easily bored. This cruel, barbaric display of violence is, therefore, a lot of fun for them.

Indirect characterization through speech
A character is revealed by what he or she says and by what other characters say about the character. For example, in “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell, a famous hunter, Rainsford, is lost at sea and washes ashore on an island owned by General Zaroff.
Sanger Rainsford
A world-renowned big-game hunter and the story's protagonist. Intelligent, experienced, and level-headed, Rainsford uses his wits and physical prowess to outwit General Zaroff. ... Hiding from Zaroff, he recalls his days fighting in the trenches of World War I, where he witnessed unimaginable violence.
An example of direct characterization is when Rainsford meets General Zaroff and the narrator explains: "Rainsford's first impression was that the man was singularly handsome; his second was that there was an original, almost bizarre quality about the general's face.
