active and passive


Active sentence
* In an active sentence, the subject is doing the action.

Passive sentence
* The target of the action gets promoted to the subject position.
* Used when the emphasis more on the object of a sentence
   rather than doer. If it is imperative that the doer (subject) be
   mentioned, the passive sentence will include a 'by' phrase.

Example :
  > People (subject) spoke (verb) Japanese (object) in Japan
      (active sentence) 
  > Japanese language (subject) was spoken (verb) by
      people (object) in Japan. (passive sentence)


When Active change to Passive sentence, verb must change
to past participle. Past Participle cannot stand by its own. So, it
must use be verb & auxilary verb.

I have learn about argumentative essay with my lecturer.. Argumentative is just like simple essay but it is different in thesis statement and a conclusion.. This essay just only have 5 paragraph. Before make this essay we must make a brainstorm and identify the topics and then decide which side you are.. In the statement we must write a strong word such as i agree or others...besides,thesis statement must state what your claim is and can include the parts of the argument you are going to state..In this essay we have refutation..refutation is other people idea that contrast with our idea...so,,remember that argumentative essay is not same with normal essay
