In one of my sentence rewriting exercise, I made this sentence:
"When confronted by a mass of red tape, many people feel a sense of helplessness."
But my teacher said it was incorrect and tell me this is the correct answer:
"When confronted with a mass of red tape, many people feel a sense of helplessness."
I don't get it. Isn't this supposed to be a passive voice?
