Qu'est-ce que l'imparfait  ?

On utilise l'imparfait pour l'action passe. Mais il y a des cas spécifiques. Par exemple, on utile pour les actions habituelles. "Toute ma vie, je faisais des blagues".

Why is active voice preferred over passive voice?

An active voice tells the reader who is doing the action. It helps clarify the writing. For example: "The ball was thrown.” Who threw it? Instead, try "Mark threw the ball.”
