"The assignment was given by the teacher" is written in the passive voice because the subject of the sentence ("the assignment") is receiving the action of the verb ("was given"), rather than performing the action.

"He enjoys playing basketball" contains a gerund, which is "playing." A gerund is a verb that is used as a noun and ends in "-ing." The other options do not have gerunds. "Sleeping" and "walking" are verbs, but they are not being used as nouns. "Studying" is a present participle, which is also formed with "-ing," but it is being used as a verb in this sentence.

B. She sings beautifully.
C. The cake was baked by my mom.

In passive voice, the subject of the sentence is the receiver of the action, not the doer. The other options are written in active voice, where the subject performs the action. "Chased" and "sings" are both active verbs, and "will finish" is future tense.
13.Which sentence uses a superlative adjective?

"It is the best pizza I have ever tasted" uses the superlative adjective "best" to describe the pizza. A superlative adjective is used to compare one thing to all others in a group and shows the highest degree of a quality. The other options use comparative or positive adjectives. "Good" is a positive adjective, "taller" is a comparative adjective, and "more interesting" is also a comparative adjective.
14.Which sentence uses a reflexive pronoun?
