Explanation:
Passive voice is often used to emphasize a verb or the object in a sentence. In active voice, emphasis is made on the subject i.ethe doer of the action but in passive voice, the verb or subject is emphasized.
Passive voice could also show that the subject in that case is either not too important or we don't know what or who the subject is.
A way to identify passive voice is to observe what happened and what the subject in the text is. If the subject i.e the doer is omitted or occurs after the action has taken place, it's a passive voice. Sometimes you can also identify it by looking at the verb. If it's in past participle, as in "had been" (used in option C), it's passive voice.
The presence of "by" (also present in option C), which also turns the position of object to subject is also an indicator of passive voice.
Yoni's motivation in talking to Sergei is to get good material for the documentary he is making. This compares to the goldfish motivation because the goldfish is motivated to fill someone's life with good things.
The theme revealed through the way Sergei acts is the theme that happiness is never eternal and there will always be times when it won't be there.
Although you did not present the text to which this question refers, we can see from the context of the question that you are referring to "What of this Goldfish, Would You Wish?"
By reading this short story, we can say that:
- The story shows how a poor boy named Yoni has the brilliant idea of filming a documentary to sell to a large television network.
- The documentary consists of filming people who will answer the question "What would you want if you had a magical fish that could grant wishes?"
- While interviewing people, Yoni ends up arriving at Sergei's house, which does have a magical wish-granting goldfish.
- Sergei is a foreigner and is in a moment where he considers himself happy.
- This is because, in addition to having a magical fish, he is living the way he wanted.
- However, he doesn't want to reveal that he has a magic fish to Yoni and Yoni's insistence on interviewing him causes his happiness to slowly dissipate.
