What Is Active Voice? (With Examples)
A verb is said to be in active voice when the subject performs the verb.
Look at this example of the active voice:
Active voice is the quality of a verb that describes when its subject is acting out the verb. When the opposite is true (i.e., the subject of the sentence is being acted upon by the verb), it is said to be in passive voice.
Look at this example of the passive voice:
Examples of Verbs in the Active Voice
If a verb is in the active voice, its subject performs the action of the verb.
Examples of active verbs (active verbs shaded):
Step 1: Find the subject.
(In this example, it’s Curiosity.)
Step 2: Did the subject perform the verb?
(In this example, the verb is to kill, and Curiosity did perform the action of the verb. Therefore, killed is a verb in the active voice.)
Step 1: Find the subject.
(In this example, it’s All power.)
Step 2: Did the subject perform the verb?
(In this example, the verb is to corrupt, and All power did perform the action of the verb. Therefore, corrupts is a verb in the active voice.)

Composition: Introduction to expository essay
The purpose of the expository essay is to explain a topic in a logical and straightforward manner. Without bells and whistles, expository essays present a fair and balanced analysis of a subject based on facts—with no references to the writer’s opinions or emotions.
A typical expository writing prompt will use the words “explain” or “define,” such as in, “Write an essay explaining how the computer has changed the lives of students.” Notice there is no instruction to form an opinion or argument on whether or not computers have changed students’ lives. The prompt asks the writer to “explain,” plain and simple. However, that doesn’t mean expository essay writing is easy.
The Five-Step Writing Process for Expository Essays
Expository writing is a life skill. More than any other type of writing, expository writing is a daily requirement of most careers. Understanding and following the proven steps of the writing process helps all writers, including students, master the expository essay.
Expository Essay Structure
usually, the expository essay is composed of five paragraphs. The introductory paragraph contains the thesis or main idea. The next three paragraphs, or body of the essay, provide details in support of the thesis. The concluding paragraph restates the main idea and ties together the major points of the essay.
Here are expository essay tips for each part of the essay structure and writing process:
1. Prewriting for the Expository Essay
2. drafting the Expository Essay
3. Revising the Expository Essay
4. Editing the Expository Essay
5. Publishing the Expository Essay
