C. sentence 3. In English grammar, sentences can be categorized as either active or passive voice. An active sentence features a subject performing an action, as in: Mike wrote a letter to his friend. Conversely, when the subject of a sentence is acted upon, it exhibits passive voice. For example: A letter was written by Mike. The passive voice structure uses the formula: (to be) + past participle. Sentence 3 (a priceless painting is stolen by the thieves) operates in passive voice; the verbs 'is' and 'stolen' serve as the past participle.

Which best describes British civilization as Ishiguro portrays it in The Buried Giant?
Gnom [7528]
The setting is post-Arthurian civilization. Explanation: The Buried Giant is a fantasy work written by the acclaimed author Kazuo Ishiguro. This novel depicts the life of an elderly British couple during post-Arthurian times, where the populace suffers from short-term memory loss. The couple, Axl and Beatrice, are uncertain about the whereabouts of their presumed son and embark on a quest to find him. In this narrative, Saxons and Britons coexist peacefully. Throughout their journey, they meet Sir Gawain, who once had a mission from King Arthur to slay the dragon Querig but failed. A Saxon knight, Wistan, saves a boy named Edwin from ogres and joins Axl and Beatrice in their quest, intending to locate Querig and kill it. Eventually, Axl, Beatrice, Wistan, and Sir Gawain reach the dragon's lair, where it's revealed that Sir Gawain was meant to safeguard the dragon, leading to a duel in which Wistan kills him and slays the dragon, which restores the peoples' memories and rekindles old hostilities between Saxons and Britons.
