Q. 7. Let’s learn some grammar:

Read the sentences written on the smoke bubbles:Class 6 EnglishPollution Class 6 English

When the subject of a verb is the person or thing that performs the action, the verb is said to be in the active voice.

When the subject of a sentence is the receiver of an action or is affected by the action of the verb, the verb is said to be in the passive voice.

Now look at what active and passive sentences look like:

e.g (i)

Active →   Cats chase rats.

Passive →  Rats are chased by cats.

What did you notice?

(i)  Some words in the two sentences change their positions

(ii)  The verb chase changes to are chased.Pollution

(ii)  Look at another example. You will see the same change.

Smoke spoils the air.                   The air is spoilt by smoke.

Now work in the pairs. Find some more active sentences and write in the bubbles on the left. Then write their passive forms in the bubbles on the right:

Now write the following sentences in passive voice, and write it on a chart paper to make a poster. You can colour it, write a heading and hang it in your classroom.

We need clean air. We need fresh water too. Some animals eat green leaves. Trees and plants breathe the air that we breathe out. They help us to breathe fresh air.

Long, long ago a night river flowed in the heart of the blue planet where we live. The river could dance and flow as it wished and was a friend of the people. The night river was home to different kinds of aquatic animals and plants. It provided pure water to the animals and the plant kingdom. It added beauty to the water. The river cooled the surroundings and made the soil fertile. It was used for water transport and gave us water for drinking, washing, cooking, bathing, cleaning, etc. The people on the blue planet were happy with the gifts given by the mighty night river.
