Consider the sentences below:
The committee rejected the proposal after a long discussion.
The proposal, after a long discussion, was rejected.
After a long discussion, the proposal faced rejection.
Analyze the three statements considering voice, syntactic structure, systemic-functional grammar (theme/rheme), and changes in informational focus. Mark the correct alternative:
A
None of the sentences presents verbal transitivity traits suitable for conversion between active and passive voice and vice versa.
B
Sentence (1) is in active voice and highlights the agent as the Theme, while in (2) and (3) the Theme is the patient, producing an informational reorganization that shifts the focus to the event rather than to the performer of the action.
C
Alternation from active to passive generally requires the elimination of the subject in the final sentence.
D
Sentence (1) cannot be transformed into the passive voice because the verb reject does not allow valency alternation between active and passive structures.
E
All three sentences are semantically equivalent, since variations in word order do not affect theme distribution or the informational focus of the statements.
