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.

How does the beginning of "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain" relate to the conclusion? Select all that apply.
Bond [7527]
These are the selections I believe to be correct. A. <span>The conclusion is uplifting compared to the start. The onset is serene and restrained. The speaker expresses regret about the young Negro undervaluing his own racial heritage, but at that point, a solution has yet to materialize. Conversely, the conclusion bursts with energy, and is vibrant and assertive. It presents an uplifting resolution, urging Negro artists to overcome prejudices and attain their freedom by climbing that mountain. D. </span><span>The conclusion revisits a quote that appeared in the opening. The quote comes from the young Negro poet: </span><span>"I want to be a poet--not a Negro poet," expressing the desires of middle-class Negroes to assimilate into mainstream American culture, thus disregarding their own identity.</span>

Rewrite each of the following sentences, adding an adverb to modify the verb. She acted to find a solution. They walked through
Bond [7527]
She acted hastily, they ambulated briskly, spoke with calmness, and may likely have appeared. These are examples for adverbs. For the latter part: extremely joyous and intriguingly cautious. I can't think of a suitable one for the last sentence. Hope this is helpful!
