Question 46808 • WI-English Language Arts 8 A

Which statements are written in active voice? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
The student read a new book.
B
Many students protested the new uniform requirement.
C
The books were opened by the students.
D
The peacemakers signed a new agreement.
E
The papers were signed by twenty representatives.

Explanation

In active voice, the subject performs the action. In A, the student read; in B, many students protested; and in D, the peacemakers signed, so these are active. C and E are passive because the subjects—the books and papers—receive the actions, indicated by “were opened” and “were signed.”
