Rewrite each of the following sentences on your own paper, changing all passive voice verbs to active verbs.
1. The coconut cream pie was gobbled down by the starving Scouts.
2. The little village was drenched by a blinding downpour.
3. The budget was slashed by the angry city council.
4. The football goal posts were toppled by the swarming fans.
5. The pale rose petals were caressed by silver moonbeams.
6. A stern warning to striking workers was issued by the governor.
7. The field was pranced upon by the playful ponies.
8. The air was filled by the steady beat of drums.
9. Through the fog and mist a beacon of assurance was sent out by the old lighthouse.
10. Stories of hardship and suffering were told by old Mrs. Hawkins.
Explanation:
First let's look at the difference between active and passive voice:
"Active voice means that a sentence has a subject that acts upon its verb. Passive voice means that a subject is a recipient of a verb's action."
1) The coconut cream pie was gobbled down by the starving Scouts.
What's the subject? The coconut cream pie. What is it doing? Nothing. Its the scouts that are preforming the verb of the sentence. In order to find active voice, we must make that Scouts the subject of the sentence.
The starving scouts gobbled down the coconut cream pie.
2)The little village was drenched by a blinding downpour.
Let's try a different approach. What is the verb? Drenched. Now what is doing the drenching? The down pour. Whatever noun is preforming the verb will be the subject of an active voice sentence. So . . .
A blinding downpour drenched the little village.
In short, in active voice, the main subject must be doing the main verb
Answer:
I'm not going to give an explanation for all of these, but I encourage you to try some of these yourself using the methods introduced above i.e find the main verb and from there find what is doing the verb, or find the main subject and create the sentence around it so it's doing the action.
3) The angry city council slashed the budget.
4) The swarming fans toppled the football goal posts.
5) The silver moonbeams caressed the pale rose petals
6) The governor issued a stern warning to striking workers
(Note: Here, striking is not the verb of the sentence but an adjective to describe workers. Could also be a gerund, I'm not sure. Either way, it's not the main verb.)
7) The playful ponies pranced upon the field.
8) The stead beat of drums filled the air.
9) Through the fog and mist, the old light house sent a beacon of assurance.
(Note: Through the fog and mist is a prepositional phrase and could be put at the end of the sentence or the beginning)
10) Mrs. Hawkins told stories of hardship and suffering.
(Note: suffering is part of the preposition and thus is not the main verb)
15. How can these two sentences be combined into one compound sentence?
The dog wanted to jump into the water. The owner wouldn't allow it.
Although the dog wanted to jump into the water, the owner wouldn't allow it.
As the dog wanted to jump into the water, the owner wouldn't allow it.

The owner wouldn't allow it: The dog wanted to jump into the water.
Answer:
Although the dog wanted to jump into the water, the owner wouldn't allow it.
Explanation:

My knuckles are pale from being tightly clenched around the rusted metal bar, I feel the wind blowing against me threatening my balance. The water below me is roaring but my heart seems to be louder. I peek down, the jagged rocks and the thundering river did not seem like a pleasant way to go. My lungs feel stiff as I take in slow trembling breathes all the while feeling my grasp loosen. Would someone come to get me? I’d made one last 911 call before my phone died, thank god for Siri, but how long would it take? Will they find me in time? A stinging pain rises in my hands, my nails are digging into my palm, drawing warm blood that I can’t help but feel relief for as the air grows colder. I glance back at the deteriorating metal railing from the now sideways bridge, I should’ve never walked across, I should’ve never risked it. Suddenly, the bridge shifts and lets out a big creak. My heart drops, is this it? My heart is beating faster now, It’s freezing out but I’m sweating, how much longer can I last?

Answer:
oh
Explanation:
Directions: Your assignment is to write a “Where I’mFrom” poem to tell yourstory! Your words should represent you and your personal experiences; consider connotations in order to make choices to best convey your meaning. Choose your words carefully and include IMAGERY (sensory details) about the smells, tastes, sights, sounds, and textures of your childhood. Choose ideas, objects, sayings, people, and memories that are somehow symbolic of your childhood experience – details that represent something bigger than what they actually are. For example, maybe you have fond memories of the apple pies your grandma often baked whenyou were young. Because those apple pies were always associated with your grandma and her loving home, her pies are more than just apples and crust to you. They might be symbolic of her love and her devotion to her family. They mean something BIGGER.Rea

What is the mistake in this sentence? “Henry’s vacation was filled with runnning, biking, and swimming.”
Answer:
Misspelling
Explanation:
There is 3 N's in the word running
The mistake in the given sentence is "misspelling," out of the given verbs running, biking, and swimming, the word "running" is spelled as "runnning," which is misspelled.
Why is correct spelling important?Communication is critically reliant on spelling. Reading and spelling abilities are interconnected and contribute to the growth of general literacy.
Spelling requires the brain to integrate its understanding of a word by balancing how it appears, and sounds, and using the conventions and quirks of our language.
Learning high-frequency "sight words" to the level of mastery improves both writing and reading skills. Learning to spell aids in the solidification of the relationship between the letters and their sounds.
This ability is really helpful. Spelling aids a child's ability to recognize linguistic patterns and comprehend how words are constructed.
Reading, writing, and spelling all support one another. Kids understand that by using the same guidelines for spelling words, they can also use those guidelines for reading and writing.
Therefore, in the given sentence, the x was the mistake spotted.

What is the central idea of the passage? from Friendship by Ralph Waldo Emerson
There are two elements that go to the composition of friendship, each so sovereign, that I can detect no superiority in either, no reason why either should be first named. One is Truth. A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud. I am arrived at last in the presence of a man so real and equal that I may drop even those undermost garments of dissimulation, courtesy, and second thought, which men never put off, and may deal with him with the simplicity and wholeness, with which one chemical atom meets another. Sincerity is the luxury allowed, but diadems and authority, only to the highest rank, that being permitted to speak truth as having none above it to court or conform unto. Every man alone is sincere. At the entrance of a second person, hypocrisy begins. We parry and fend the approach of our fellow-man by compliments, by gossip, by amusements, by affairs. We cover up our thought from him under a hundred folds. I knew a man who, under a certain religious frenzy, cast off this drapery, and omitting all compliments and commonplace, spoke to the conscience of every person he encountered, and that with great insight and beauty
