.
To answer this question, you need to understand the two options provided in the drop-down list and determine which one correctly completes the sentence. The first option is missing, so let's focus on the second option.
The second option states, "When the subject of the sentence receives the action, and the person or thing doing the action follows the verb, the sentence is in." However, the answer is cut off, so we cannot see the complete word.
To find the correct answer, we need to understand the concept being described. In grammar, we have two types of sentences based on the relationship between the subject and the verb: active voice and passive voice.
In an active voice sentence, the subject performs the action of the verb. For example, "The dog chased the cat." Here, "dog" is the subject, and it is performing the action of "chasing" the cat.
In a passive voice sentence, the subject receives the action of the verb, and the doer of the action follows the verb or is omitted. For example, "The cat was chased by the dog." Now, "cat" is the subject, but it is receiving the action of being "chased," and the doer of the action, "dog," follows the verb.
Based on this understanding, the correct answer should complete the sentence by describing the passive voice. Unfortunately, since the complete word is not visible, I cannot provide the exact answer. However, the missing word should be related to the passive voice.
1. active voice; passive voice
2. passive voice; active voice
3. when the person or thing performing the action is unimportant or unknown
4. Rebbeca and Lauren went to the beach
5. Revise it so the person or thing doing the action (the Bluejays) comes before the verb (was won)
