Activity 1.6:
Identifying passive verb forms.
verbs in passive voice are underlined in the text below
The Academy Awards are given out every year to recognize outstanding work of movie actors,
directors, and others who are part of the movie-making industry. These awards, called Oscars,
are presented in a formal ceremony in Hollywood. Several people are nominated in specific
categories, such as Best Movie, Best Actor, Best Music, and Best Costumes. One nominee is
chosen to receive an award in each category. When the awards ceremony started in 1929, 15
awards were presented and the ceremony was attended by only 250 people. Tickets cost $10, and
anyone who could afford a ticket could attend. Today about two dozen Oscars are presented.
Tickets are no longer sold to the general public; invitations are sent only to people involved in
making the movies and to their guests. Today the awards are presented in the 3400-seat Kodak
Theatre in Hollywood. Until 1941, the winners’ names were already known before the ceremony
and published in newspapers the night before the ceremony. Now the winners’ names are placed
in sealed envelopes and the envelopes are not opened until the night of the ceremony. Since
1953, Oscar night has been televised and broadcast all over the world. This show is seen by
hundreds of millions of people. Viewers watch as their favorite movie stars arrive looking
beautiful and hopeful.
