subject of the verb performs the action or

subject and the action(verb).

academic and business writing because it
is simpler and more direct.
We use it because when we want to
emphasis (a verb mean give imp,value to
someone)the receiver of action.
Example: The waiter dropped the tray of
food.

the waiter.

6. When the subject of a sentence performs an
action on an object is called active voice.
Simple as:
The subject does the action, and the
object receives the action.
For Example:

the action it is the one that "ate". meanwhile,
"homework" is the object that is receiving this
action of eating.

7.  Active voice always use 1st form of verb.

called PassiveVoice.
OR
The passive voice is basically the opposite of the
ActiveVoive.
Simple as:
The subject receives the action, and
the object does the action.
For Example:
