Answer :

Final answer:

Identify passive voice sentence: 'We were given new toothbrushes by the hygienist.' Change to active voice for clarity.


Explanation:

The sentence that uses passive voice is:

  • We were given new toothbrushes by the hygienist.

In passive voice, the action is performed on the subject of the sentence. Here, 'We were given new toothbrushes' shifts the focus to the receiving action rather than the hygienist who gave them.

Active voice would be: 'The hygienist gave us new toothbrushes.'
