Oops! A journalist made a mistake! The following paragraphs were written using the passive voice. Rewrite them in an active voice. Explain how the two versions differ. Why is active voice a better choice for journalistic writing?

Recently, talks have been conducted by the administration to determine the amount of aid to send to foreign countries. Previously, the countries were sent nearly $1 million in aid each year, but it was decided by the administration that countries would receive at least half that amount this year.
A local construction worker was killed by a faulty ladder last week. The worker had been putting tiles onto a roof when he was left hanging after the ladder fell. Unable to keep his grip, the fingers of the man slipped and were the cause of his fall.
Answer:
In this very simple sentence, the active voice is the better choice. It is more concise (shorter), more direct, and stronger. The passive voice, in this case, is unnecessarily wordy and clunky.

Read the excerpt from the article Amazing Plants:
There are a surprising number of plants that are carnivorous, or feed on meat. One of the most well-known carnivorous plants is the Venus flytrap. This carnivore lives in warm, swampy areas where it feeds on flies and any other insect unfortunate enough to land on one of its round, spiky leaves. The leaves are motion-sensitive, and the slightest touch causes a leaf to snap shut, trapping the prey behind a prison of spikes.
Pitcher plants are another quiet carnivore. The plants are long, pitcher-like tube shapes, with wide bottoms full of water to catch and digest their prey. Pitcher plants use different strategies to attract prey. Some give off sweet smells, while others produce nectar. Pitchers have been known to consume anything from insects to small lizards and rodents.
Read the article Trapped by a Predator:
When I was 12, I went on vacation to the Wilmington, North Carolina area. While there, my family and I went on a hike in the Croatan National Forest, a true coastal forest that is bordered on three sides by water. As I traversed the boardwalk, I caught a glimpse of something pink in my peripheral vision. I stopped and bent down to inspect the mysterious looking specimen. It had long, sharp-looking white teeth and a large, pink mouth. Upon closer inspection, I noticed little droplets of liquid around the rim. Inside its mouth, there were six tiny hairs, three on the top and three on the bottom. While I was examining the unknown object, I saw a fly zoom in and land inside the mouth. I observed as it wandered around the reddish-pink, fleshy surface and brushed against one of the hairs. What happened next seemed like something out of a horror story. All of a sudden, the mouth snapped shut, and the teeth made a prison, trapping the poor fly inside. I witnessed the fly fighting against the spiky teeth, trying to escape, but it was an unsuccessful struggle. When my mother caught up to me on the path, I showed her the slayer, and she explained that the fly eater was the plant called a Venus flytrap. In that moment, I wanted to learn more about this carnivorous flora.
I became a botanist because of that first encounter with the predatory plant. Over the years, I learned so much more about the Dionaea muscipula, better known as the Venus flytrap. For example, the liquid around the rim of its "mouth" is actually a sweet nectar that lures prey. In addition, the six tiny hairs, called trichomes, are like little sensory time bombs. This means when an insect touches a trichome, a timer is set for 20 seconds. If there is a second touch within the 20-second period, the mouth clamps down and traps the prey. The third movement signals the plant's digestive juices to start breaking down the insect. In about ten days, the Venus flytrap reopens and any part of the insect that didn't get digested falls out. It is an amazing process!
Because of my experience in North Carolina all those years ago, I decided to become a botanist and specialize in carnivorous plants. I have studied pitcher plants, sundews, water wheels, cobra lilies, and more. I never bore learning about the different traps, like suction traps and sticky traps, that carnivorous plants use to snare their prey. In fact, you could say I was trapped by the Venus flytrap, that meat-eating predator, when I first laid eyes on it.

The options are finally , later , originally and consequently:
Answer:
Originally makes the most sense.
Finally means last, which is future tense and would not make much sense.
Later is also future tense, which would be confusing.
Consequently means as a result of something, and that would cause a sentence fragment if added.
And with that info, that only leaves "originally".

Then he stood up and stared at me. “Friend,” he said, “I do not like to have you speak to me in that manner.” I kept still and let him have his say. “I know these Americans are good people, and that is why I have agreed to sell my house to them. But I do not care to be insulted. I have agreed to sell my house and land for twelve hundred dollars and that is the price.”
I argued with him, but it was useless. Finally he signed the deed and took the money but refused to take more than the amount agreed upon. Then he shook hands all around, put on his ragged gloves, took his stick and walked out with the boy behind him.

LITERARY ANALYSIS: In this excerpt from his autobiography, Dr. George Jenkins shares the true story of one of his early influences—a teacher who gave him hope for the future. How did this experience affect Jenkins? Explain how Jenkins uses connotations and denotations to show how this early experience shaped his feelings about school and college.
Answer: Dr. George Jenkins shares the true story of one of his early influences—a teacher who gave him hope for the future.
Explanation:
Dr. George Jenkins defied the odds while born and raised in a difficult neighborhood in Newark, New Jersey. On February 6, 1973, he was born and attended University High, where his life transformed. Jenkins grew fascinated with the technique at the age of thirteen when visiting a dentist's office, and the dentist proceeded to inform Jenkins about his various tools and taught him about teeth. He knew he wanted to be a dentist from that minute forward.
Jenkins befriended Sampson Davis and Rameck Hunt in high school, two equally intelligent students living in the same difficult neighborhood. Jenkins had heard of a program at Seton Hall University that paid for minority students to attend if they studied pre-medicine or pre-dental. Jenkins began by persuading his pals to apply. Davis and Hunt were both accepted, with Davis choosing medicine. The three studied together for the next four years to maintain their academics and enthusiasm. After graduating, Davis and Hunt went to medical school, but Jenkins stayed in Newark to attend the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. They stayed in touch, paying each other weekly visits to study and cheer each other up. The three young men became doctors in 1999, and the next day, a media outlet printed a front-page feature about them with the headline, "Beginning of Something Big." Jenkins is now a public health faculty member at the University of Medicine and Dentistry.
The Pact: Three Young Men Make A Promise and Fulfill A Dream, a paperback detailing their events authored by The Three Doctors, became a New York Times bestseller. They also founded the Three Doctors Foundation to grant scholarships to inner-city youngsters, and they travel the country speaking and inspiring students to follow in their footsteps. For their community service, the three received an Essence Award in 2000. They intend to begin appearing in music videos and on billboards with the goal of providing alternative role models to poor youngsters.
