Why would you try to avoid using passive voice in your writing?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

One reason writers are advised to avoid using passive voice is that passive sentences tend to be wordier than active sentences. Another problem with using passive voice is that it makes the object of the action the subject of the sentence, which can make the sentence difficult to follow.

Democracy will be a ideal world, because Democrats would protect their citizens, and equal/fair elections voting booths for men/woman/they to elect someone in. Also a fair guaranteed government for citizens and federalists.  The schools and education in a democratic world would be, equality on individuals and yourself for democratic values. You can be confident for who you want to be, because Democrats will ensure you to be respected, equal on both hands, and justice of your own. In a democratic school, you will be taught to believe that you're not lazy or passive, just creative in your own thoughts in idea. Democrats help you with business too, with your big company or furthermore due. Family life as a Democrat would be if you had a adopted kid, child, or kid you got to take care of, Democratic party would help you! If a daycare was too expensive for you, not to worry, Democrats got it all handled for you and will probably lower the price of it. If you're a Democrat and you're in a democratic family, you'll likely be more mentally stable and happy than some Republic families. This type of happiness would come from you getting respected equality on ethnicities, RACE, LGBTQ+, and being protective by the democratic party. This world would probably be possible in any chance if they would agree to it :3

Answer:

At first, they promise to be with everyman through death and life, yet as they hear his problem they make hatse...to leave! Everyman sees this and is disstressed, saying "How should I be merry or glad? For fair promises men to me make, But when I have most need, they me forsake. I am deceived; that maketh me sad." And "Lo, fair words maketh fools fain; They promise and nothing will do, certain. My kinsmen promised me faithfully For to abide with me steadfastly, And now fast away do they flee. Even so Fellowship promised me. What friend were best me of to provide?"

What is the narrator's realization at the end of the story, and how does washing the turbans

cause her perspective to change? (make sure to use textual evidence)

Montreal

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

At the end of the story, the narrator realizes that the use of the turban and long hair by her husband is a symbol of her origin and showed the resistance of immigrants and natives in a region as different as Canada. For this reason, she does not want her husband to give in to Western customs, cutting his hair and abandoning his turban, to find a job, since that hurts their essence. In that case, she prefers that he does not look for a job and that she does so.

She had this epiphany, the moment she saw the washing of the turbans, as she remembered how culturally important and familiar they are, since her father and brother used turbans all the time. At that moment, she recognized that removing the turban meant abandoning her origin and betraying her family and that should not happen anywhere in the world.

Read Abraham Lincoln's Letter to fellow Republican James T. Hale. In this letter, President Lincoln suggests a compromise with the South’s demands to keep the Union from falling apart.

Confidential. Hon. J. T. Hale Springfield, Ill. Jan'y. 11th 1861.

My dear Sir—Yours of the 6th is received. I answer it only because I fear you would misconstrue my silence. What is our present condition? We have just carried an election on principles fairly stated to the people. Now we are told in advance, the government shall be broken up, unless we surrender to those we have beaten, before we take the offices. In this they are either attempting to play upon us, or they are in dead earnest. Either way, if we surrender, it is the end of us, and of the government. They will repeat the experiment upon us ad libitum. A year will not pass, till we shall have to take Cuba as a condition upon which they will stay in the Union. They now have the Constitution, under which we have lived over seventy years, and acts of Congress of their own framing, with no prospect of their being changed; and they can never have a more shallow pretext for breaking up the government, or extorting a compromise, than now. There is, in my judgment, but one compromise which would really settle the slavery question, and that would be a prohibition against acquiring any more territory. Yours very truly, A. LINCOLN.

What strategies did you use? What did you have to do. What does this communicate about how you learn? Explain how you learn using specific examples from your life in one paragraph. Make sure to use formal writing conventions. Your paragraph must be atleast 400

Answers

Answer:

Okay so whats its asking is for you to write about a time you learned something difficult correctly.

Explanation:

I'll give you an example:  A time I learned something successfully was the importance of doing my school work. Last year, we had these after school activities called socials. I really wanted to go to the end of school one but I couldnt go because I had all F's and only had 2 weeks to get my grades up. So when I got home I emailed all my teachers something called a  makeup work sheet where you list things you can do to redo a test or worksheet. I had to study hard by using a bunch of online tutoring sessions and stay after school sessions with my teachers. I didnt get to play outside or have sleepovers all I did for those two weeks (besides basic hygiene) was focusing on school.  I ended up with all B's and it was all worth it. I consider It karma but it all worked out perfectly and now I try to maintain my grades.

(Substitute some words like: Last year- At my old school. Had all F's- I had all 1's. Socials- classroom party's. )

(How is the theme of this story, Terrible Things, similar to the theme of Wiesel’s excerpt and the Neimoller poem?)
- Begin with a topic sentence that responds to the prompt and states a theme.
-Provide textual evidence (at least 3 pieces of textual evidence) from the texts and commentary for support.
- Use precise diction to inform or explain.

Answers

Answer: I believe the answer is A.

I’ve only read a little bit of the books a while ago but if I’m remembering correctly I believe it’s A. Hope it helps! :)

Answer:

Niemöller's poem reminds modern Jews that, as a people who were almost wiped out, it's our duty—as it is everyone's duty—to speak up for other minorities under attack, lest we be next. The shema sets us apart from other peoples; “First they came” binds us together again.

The story “Terrible Things,” by Eve Bunting, allegorizes the Holocaust, a genocide that occurred throughout Europe during the 1930s and 40s, to illustrate both the horrors of this time period and the failure of the masses to protect each other.

So they both had the message of protection and hope.

First, it is important that you read the full text, to understand the whole subject addressed by the author. After that, assuming you answered Part A, you should look in Part B for lines that support the Part A response. This line will be the one that provides a justification and proves the information covered in Part A, showing that it is true and real.
