Explanation:

Passive voice is a form or set of forms of verbs in which the subject undergoes the action of the object.

Passive voice is used, when;

1: We don't exactly know the subject of the action e.g. A snake was killed. (We don't know, who killed the snake), the trees were cut (who cut them, no idea)

OR

2: When the action itself is more important (want to emphasize action) than subject of the action. For example, A snake was killed by him ( snake being killed is more important or emphasized than who killed the snake).

An easy and short-cut way to identify whether the sentence is a passive voice or not is;

Passive voice always have a form of be (be/is/are/am/was/were) which are followed by third form (past participle) of principal verb. If it is not so, the sentence is certainly not a passive voice. And if it does have this structure the sentence is certainly passive voice.

multiple settings

< > reasoning \ evidence < >

novels have multiple settings. a setting is a place or surrounding when a main event or event takes place. not everything happens in just one scene or setting. yes, there can be one *main* setting, but there is definitely not just one. b is incorrect. novels do not have limited characters. there are many characters in a novel, depending on how many the writer wishes to add in. c is incorrect. there is not just a single theme. there are many themes. another word for "theme" is the subject. there can be many subjects and topics. once again, there are many, depending on however many the author wishes to add or include. d is incorrect. yes, novels *can* have no solutions, based on what the author would like. but typically, novels have a solution. the solution might be in "book 5", but there is normally still a solution.
