The document provides exercises to practice identifying and transforming between active and passive voice. It contains three sections: the first asks the reader to identify sentences as active or passive voice and rewrite them; the second asks to rewrite passive voice sentences as active voice; the third asks to change verbs into gerund forms based on their use. The overall purpose is to practice recognizing and manipulating between active and passive voice constructions.
