Keynote: Remember that in USTET, it is either they’ll ask you how the modal was used in the sentence, or through the reviewer, you should be able to determine how the modal verb was used in the sentence. III. ADVERBS AND ADJECTIVES Adverb It describes or emphasizes the verb. Manner (How?) Quickly, peacefully, loudly, happily Time (When?) Yesterday, Today, Now Place (Where?) Inside, Outside, Here, There Degree (To what extent?) Barely, Almost, Very, Extremely Examples: She quickly entered the classroom because she was late. Explanation: It was emphasized that she quickly entered the classroom late, therefore it is an adverb. She barely passed the test. Explanation: It was emphasized that she barely passed the test. Adjective It describes the noun or a pronoun. Examples: Ariana looks sad today. He was energetic yesterday. Keynote: In USTET, they’re asking what is describing or if it’s an adverb or adjective. Remember, the adverb is where it emphasizes the verb (Ad + verb), the adjective is where it describes the noun or pronoun. IV. PASSIVE AND ACTIVE VOICES Passive Passive is where the subject is not emphasized. (Object + Verb + Subject) Active Active is where the subject is emphasized. (Subject + Verb + Object) Example #1: Active: Ariana is cleaning my house right now. (The subject targets the verb itself) Passive: My house is being cleaned by Ariana right now. (Instead of the subject being targeted, the object is the main center point of the sentence itself. Example #2: Active: Juan wrote a 1000-word essay. (The subject targets the verb itself) Passive: The 1000-word essay is being written by Juan. (The object targets the verb itself) Keynote: Remember in USTET, they’re asking which of the following sentences are not in passive voice, but through this reviewer, we can determine how active and passive voices are used.
