Kunci Jawaban Bahasa Inggris Kelas 9 Halaman 65 66 Kurikulum Merdeka

a. Study the following explanation about how to emphasize an action in a sentence. Then, choose the correct form of the verb in brackets.

When we talk about facts or events, we sometimes want to emphasize the action rather than who is doing the action. It means that the action is more important than the doer. We use passive voice to show interest in the person or object that experiences an action. Look at the examples:

• Orangutans’ habitat is threatened by people doing deforestation.
• The number of Bornean orangutans is now estimated at about 104,000 and the Sumatran orangutans about 7,500.
• Bekantan is used as the icon of Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan.
• Bekantans are grouped as arboreal animals.

These are the examples of the changes from active into passive

• Galang brings binoculars to the forest. (Active).
  Binoculars are brought by Galang to the forest. (Passive).

  A helmeted hornbill is seen by Monita. (Passive)
