HURRY!!!!! Passive Voice to Active Voice
Oops! A journalist made a mistake! The following paragraphs were written using the passive voice. Rewrite them in active voice. Explain how the two versions differ. Why is active voice a better choice for journalistic writing?

A local construction worker was killed by a faulty ladder last week. The worker had been putting tiles onto a roof when he was left hanging after the ladder fell. Unable to keep his grip, the fingers of the man slipped and were the cause of his fall.
clarification- you need to rewrite these in active voice instead of passive voice :)
Explanation: PASSIVE
Answer:
A passive voice construction is a grammatical voice construction that is found in many languages. In a clause with passive voice, the grammatical subject expresses the theme or patient of the main verb – that is, the person or thing that undergoes the action or has its state changed. This contrasts with active voice, in which the subject has the agent role. For example, in the passive sentence "The tree was pulled down", the subject denotes the patient rather than the agent of the action. In contrast, the sentences "Someone pulled down the tree" and "The tree is down" are active sentences.
Active voice is a grammatical voice common in many of the world's languages. It is the unmarked voice for clauses featuring a transitive verb in nominative–accusative languages, including English and most other Indo-European languages. A verb in such languages is usually in the active voice when the subject of the verb performs the action named.

Answer: The Hobbit’s main theme is Bilbo’s development into a hero, which more broadly represents the development of a common person into a hero. At the beginning of the story, Bilbo is timid, comfortable, and complacent in his secure little hole at Bag End. When Gandalf talks him into embarking on the quest with Thorin’s dwarves, Bilbo becomes so frightened that he faints. But as the novel progresses, Bilbo prevails in the face of danger and adversity, justifying Gandalf’s early claim that there is more to the little hobbit than meets the eye.??????
Explanation:
It should be noted that the main theme of The Hobbit is Bilbo’s development into a hero.
The theme in a story simply means the main idea or central idea in the story. It's what the author wants the readers to know.
From the story, Bilbo was timid and complacent at the beginning. When Gandalf talked to him about embarking on the quest with Thorin’s dwarves, he was afraid.
As the novel progresses, he was more confident. This was vital in illustrating the theme about Bilbo’s development into a hero.

When asked to revise a task, what is the maximum number of hours you should be able to resubmit the revised task?
Answer:
The usual given time frame is 24 hours to submit and revise an assignment that was assignment for a due date that has already passedHow is a radar gun able to calculate the speed of a moving object using radio waves?
Answer:
B. Radio waves are reflected off of the moving object, which causes a change in frequency that can be analyzed by the software of the radar gun to calculate the object's speed.
Explanation:
close
As an object moves away from a radar gun, each successive wave is reflected off of the object onto the radar gun at a position farther than the previous wave. As a result, the distance between two successive crests increases and the frequency of the reflected wave decreases. Similarly, when an object moves toward a radar gun, each successive wave is reflected back to the radar gun at a position closer than the previous wave. As a result, the distance between two successive crests decreases and the frequency of the reflected wave increases. A decrease or increase in frequency is analyzed by a software program in radar guns to determine the speed of the object.
Therefore, radio waves are reflected off of the moving object, which causes a change in frequency that can be analyzed by the software of the radar gun to calculate the object's speed.
You have read two articles about Maya Society. Wrtie an essay in which you identify a common central idea of both articles and analyze the way the idea is developed in each article. Be sure to use details from both articles to support you analysis.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You forgot to include the two articles, or further links, or references. Without those articles, we do not know what you are talking about.
However, trying to help you, what we can do is to answer in the following general terms about the Maya society.
A common central idea of the articles that have been written about the Maya civilization is that they were great astronomers who liked to observe the stars and possessed a total understanding of the concept of time.
That is why the Mayas built observatories like the one in Chichen Itza, Yucatán, México. This precious building is in good condition and can be visited by tourists.
That is why the Maya society understood the use of time with three important calendars they developed.
The Tzolkin was the divine calendar and consisted of 26 days with 20 months of 13 days.
The Haab was a solar calendar that included 365 days. These days were divided into 18 months of 20 days, and the Uayebm the month with just five days.
The Long Count Calendar was the universal cycle for the Maya civilization and was used to track longer periods.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, or further references, we can say the following.
The key detail that is missing in the summary is that Phillip decided to pay close attention to Henry's clues so that he would know exactly when to place Henry in his bed.
It is correct to say that Phillip adopted Henry from the humane society. Immediately, Phillip trained Henry to sleep in his own bed. Philip was effective in training Henry because he followed the advice of using consistency with love. But we have to add the important fact that Phillip decided to pay close attention to Henry's clues so that he would know exactly when to place Henry in his bed.
That was an important factor in the learning process because that is how Philip realized what the dog was trying to tell him with its actions, and according to the training manual, mutual understanding between the owner and the pet, is very important.

The Sahara stretches across northern Africa from the coast of the Red Sea in the east all the way to the Atlantic Ocean in the west.
Why does the author MOST LIKELY use the word stretches in this sentence?
Question 4 options:
to emphasize the vast size of the desert
to reveal that the desert is increasing in size

This helps convey the enormous area covered by this desert and the vastness of its size. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
