Anniversary
If you practice a few times, it gets easier
Oftentimes we talk about "Wedding Anniversary"
"We're celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary next month."
100th... is the correct one
So which of these landmarks can people live in?
People could live in Machu Picchu
In the past, people could live in Machu PIcchu.
Which of these landmarks was a gift?

People often describe the "Great Wall of China" as being "impressive'
Something like 威风
Let's look at the grammar ..
Making passive sentences with "by" ....
In a passive sentence, the focus is on the object, not on the subject.
So your homework tonight...
Is to do Section A and B of the Grammar Focus
There are for artistic works
The idea is that in the passive sentence, the person is not most important..
the THING is most important
The building was opened by the American President in 1931.
The building and the opening are BOTH more important than "American President" in this sentence
So part below ... I want you to match the part from A with the part from B
The kiss is a painting
It's pretty easy
Just match
In Part B ... I want you to changing the sentence from active to passive.
That's the whole homework, we'll review it tomorrow!
