Since in this sentence "loved" is an adjective, you need to use the participle, LOVED.
is this correct...... a strange sound was made in the willow tree by the monkey that had escaped from the zoo.... the directions were to revise any weak unemphatic sentences by replacing be verbs or passive verbs with active alternatives.
