Answer:

Since the only verbs in the sentence are "is being celebrated", the answer is PASSIVE.

Explanation:

Passive voice usually includes the verb be as an auxiliary accompanying another (or even more than just one) verb in the past participle form. The purpose of using the passive voice is to emphasize the person, animal, or thing that suffered/received the action instead of the person, animal. or thing that actually did such action.

Notice the difference:

  • Active voice: Campers across the nation are celebrating National S'mores Day. - Present Continuous, the subject (campers) does the action of celebrating.
  • Passive voice: National S'mores Day is being celebrated by campers across the nation. - Passive Voice, the subject (National S'mores Day) receives the action of being celebrated. The campers are the agent, but not the subject.
