Consider the following pair of sentences:Active:“Researchers conducted the experiment carefully.”Passive:“The experiment was conducted carefully (by researchers).”Point the alternative that describes the functional difference between the active and passive constructions:
- AThe passive construction foregrounds the patient (the experiment) by moving it to subject position, reducing the prominence of the agent.
- BThe passive construction reverses the roles of agent and patient, emphasizing the doer rather than the action.
- CThe active voice suppresses the agent, while the passive voice obligatorily expresses it
- DThe passive form is ungrammatical because adverbs of manner cannot appear after passive verbs.
- EThe passive voice changes the meaning of the verb conduct into a stative interpretation.
