Tryouts Kayla tried to ignore her sore throat and stuffy nose. She was trying out for the soccer team, and Coach Markham would p

ick only the twenty best players. Kayla sipped from her water bottle while she waited to do practice drills. She sneezed, and then Coach Markham signaled her to start. First, Kayla had to run across the field as fast as she could. She took off, but her stuffy nose made it hard to breathe. When she reached the end of the field, she felt dizzy and her head was swimming a little. She hoped the coach hadn't noticed. Next, she and another girl had to compete for control of the soccer ball. The other girl quickly stole the ball from Kayla. Kayla was surprised. She was usually good at this. For the first time, she worried that she might not make the team. Kayla struggled through the other drills, too. At the end of the tryout, she felt terrible and left as soon as she could. A few days later, Kayla had recovered from her cold. She was still worried about her performance at the tryout, but maybe it wasn't too late to do something about it. Kayla went to see Coach Markham. She explained that she hadn't done her best because of her cold. Coach Markham listened patiently and agreed to let Kayla join the team for the first practice. That was all Kayla wanted. She knew she would be a valuable member of the team. She just needed a chance to prove it. Which of the following best describes the main theme or lesson of the story?
a. Sometimes it pays to ask someone for a second chance.
b. Nothing is easy when you are sick
c. Never give up
d. No one likes to hear excuses

L 1.5.5 Quiz: Short Narratives
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

O A. An army of redheads, angry at having been exiled, returns and  overthrows the king.

Explanation:

In the given scenario, the new King banished all the red-heads as a precaution against losing his throne/ kingdom. This is perfectly reasonable, considering his kingdom is on the line and also to make sure that the prophecy of the old woman does not come true.

But in that act of banishment, it will lead to an angry group of red-heads that will want to get their revenge. Eventually, all the banished red-heads will return, forming an army to fight any resistance from the king and with the hope of overthrowing the king. Moreover, with the overthrow of the king, the prophecy that a red-head will take his crown becomes fulfilled.

Thus, the most logical conclusion is option A.

24. The conference building was badly damaged by the fire.

25. The crash damaged several vehicles.

Explanation:

Basically, when transforming an active sentence into passive voice there are few rules to be remembered.

1. The object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence.

2. The verb "to be" is used in the tense of the active sentence.

3. The verb of the active sentence is used in its past participle form and it, with the correct form of the verb "to be", forms the verb of the passive sentence.

Backtracing these steps we can easily convert a passive sentence into its active voice.
