Passive Voice Quiz: 4/18

You will have a quiz on the use of the passive-voice in two weeks.  Once again, review using the apps on your phone, or you can try these tests.  Here is a longer explanation, and here is the shorter.  Read the shorter first.  Active is the regular way, and passive is less common and sounds weaker, but you use it to avoid saying who/what is doing the action.

                                  ACTIVE                                             PASSIVE

Simple Present	Once a week, Tom cleans the house.	Once a week, the house is cleaned (by Tom).
Present Continuous	Right now, Sarah is writing the letter.	Right now, the letter is being written (by Sarah).
