Answer:
1. The boy is very hungry but he does not eat.
2. Good news is expected by us shortly.
Explanation:
1. A ‘simple sentence’ is a sentence with one main or independent clause only. It has only one subject and predicate.
The given sentences in the question have to be changed into a compound sentence. The conjunction ‘but’ joins two predicates and makes it a compound sentence. A ‘compound sentence’ is made up of ‘two or more independent clauses’ or two subjects or predicates joined by a conjunction. When two simple sentences are joined into one, they make a compound sentence.
2. The active voice implies to a sentence where the ‘subject performs an action’ on an object. In passive sentences, this object on which something was done is brought to the beginning of the sentence making it the subject and the subject is pushed at the end. The good news is the subject in the passive sentence.
