*ACTIVE vs. PASSIVE*

Write two sentences using the word celebrate.

In the first sentence, use the word in the active voice; in the second sentence, use it in the passive voice.

Good try, rehabo, but your second sentence is not in the passive voice.

Audrey got the passive voice correct.

Note that she used the imperative mood for active voice.
