Grammar: Verb Mood and Voice

Question 9 • VA-English 10 CR

Which sentence contains a verb in the active form?

Answer
A
The first pitch will be thrown by a baseball great at the Babe Ruth Day celebration game.
B
Babe Ruth Day will be celebrated by our varsity baseball team.
C
Our varsity baseball team will celebrate Babe Ruth Day.
D
Was the Babe Ruth Day celebration attended by the community?

Explanation

In the active form, the subject performs the action. In choice C, “our varsity baseball team” performs the action “will celebrate,” so the sentence is active. The other choices use passive forms: the subject receives the action, as in “will be thrown,” “will be celebrated,” and “was attended.”
