INTRODUCTION
Active and Passive Voice
A sentence is written in active voice when the subject of the sentence is performing the action.
A sentence is written in passive voice when the subject of the sentence has something done to it by someone or something.
For example:
Active voice: The cat was chasing the mouse.
In this sentence, 'the cat' is the subject, 'was chasing' is the verb and 'the mouse' is the object.
Passive voice: The mouse was being chased by the cat.
In this sentence 'the mouse' has become the subject which is having something done to it by the cat. |
A reminder that diaries will be checked on a Friday so have them signed.
