Active / Passive Verb Forms

Sentences can be active or passive. Therefore, tenses also have "active forms" and "passive forms." You must learn to recognize the difference to successfully speak English.

Active Form

In active sentences, the thing doing the action is the subject of the sentence and the thing receiving the action is the object. Most sentences are active.
[Thing doing action] + [verb] + [thing receiving action]
Examples: The Professor teaches the students

Passive Form

In passive sentences, the thing receiving the action is the subject of the sentence and the thing doing the action is optionally included near the end of the sentence. You can use the passive form if you think that the thing receiving the action is more important or should be emphasized. You can also use the passive form if you do not know who is doing the action or if you do not want to mention who is doing the action.
[Thing receiving action] + [be] + [past participle of verb] + [by] + [thing doing action]
Examples: The students are taught by the professor

DIET SEHAT GOLONGAN DARAH B

Hubungan diet dan golongan darah
Menurut hukum alam, golongan darah mengikuti jalur tak terputus sejak momen paling awal penciptaan manusia hingga hari ini. Jadi ia seperti “tanda tangan” dari nenek moyang kita. Orang yang bergolongan darah B memungkinkan untuk bertahan hidup dan berkembang pesat di ketinggian serta dalam iklim dingin, dengan diet seimbang antara daging, produk susu, serelia, dan sayuran. Hali ini sebagaimana terjadi pada nenek moyang bergolongan darah B.
Golongan darah menjadi kunci dari seluruh system kekebalan tubuh dan factor penjelas penting dalam profil kesehatan seseorang. Makanan yang dikonsumsi berpengaruh pada reaksi kimia yang ada di dalam darah. Banyak makanan yang dapat menggumpalkan sel-sel golongan darah tertentu, artinya makanan bisa merugikan sel salah satu golongan darah, tapi bermanfaat bagi golongan darah yang lain.
Faktor penggumpal darah yang terdapat dalam makanan disebut “Lektin”, yaitu suatu protein yang digunakan oleh virus atau bakteri untuk menjadi “hama” yang lebih lengket. Jika seseorang mengkonsumsi makananan berlektin yang tidak sesuai dengan golongan darahnya, maka lektin tersebut akan menyerang organ atau system tubuh (ginjal, hati, otak, perut, dll). Contohnya, lektin pada daging ayam bereaksi silang dengan darah golongan B dan akan menyerang enzim pencernaan dan mengganggu proses hormone insulin.
Diet golongan darah B merupakan cara untuk mengembalikan fungsi penjagaan alami dari system kekebalan tubuh, memperbaiki jam metabolisme dan membersihkan darah dari lektin yang berbahaya. Tergantung dari tingkat kecocokannya, setiap orang akan menyadari manfaat diet golongan darah ini.
