1. The reason for the cat's illness is because she was allergic to the dog.
2. The driving exam is when one is tested on he rules of the road.
The cat's allegy to the dog caused her illness.
Using "is because" and "is when" makes very awkward, confusing sentences.
Make the verb "active" instead of "passive".
In the other sentences... "tests" is the verb.

It seems like you have shared two statements and are asking for clarification or correction. Let's go through each sentence and understand them better.
1. "The reason for the cat's illness is because she was allergic to the dog."
This sentence explains the cause of the cat's illness, stating that it was due to the cat's allergy to the dog. The sentence structure can be improved by making the verb more active. For example, you can rephrase it as "The cat became ill because she was allergic to the dog."
2. "The driving exam is when one is tested on he rules of the road."
This sentence describes the driving exam as a test conducted to evaluate someone's knowledge of the rules of the road. However, there is a typo in the sentence. Instead of "he," it should be "the rules of the road." Additionally, the sentence structure can be improved by making it more concise and active. For example, you can rephrase it as "The driving exam tests one's knowledge of the rules of the road."
