Ok. This one stumped me last week...lets see how I do this time!Active: Waiter -- there is a fly in my soup!Passive: The soup was ruined by the fly in it.
Orville Wright flew the first airplane.The first airplane was flown by Orville Wright.
Active:The boy flew the kite in the park.Passive:The kite was flown by the boy in the park.
I think the mistake here was mine for not making my instructions clearer. I was expecting "fly" to be used as a verb. But you did use the active and passive voices correctly, Sarah.
