HURRY Passive Voice to Active Voice
Oops! A journalist made a mistake! The following paragraphs were written using the passive voice. Rewrite them in 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.
clarification- you need to rewrite these in active voice instead of passive voice :)
