Hello guys!!!! this is my homework and I regret the delay.....
Passive Voice
What is Passive Voice?
R= is the action of the verb in the object.
What is Active Voice?
R= is the action of the verb in the subject.
Example:
Active ----> I teach English
Passive ---> English is taught
The color red is the Subject
The color green is the Verb
The color blue is the Object
The color green is the Verb
The color blue is the Object
The color orange used to be
The color brown is the Verb in the Past Participle
In short the Passive Voice is when the subject lost importance.
When we want write sentences using the "Present Perfect", "Present Continuous", "Past Simple", "Present Simple" and "Future", we need to know the basic structures:
"Present Perfect"---->have/has been
"Present Continuous"--->am/are/is being
"Past Simple"---->was/were
"Present Simple"---->is/am/are
"Future" ----> will be / is going to be
For example:
Present Perfect:
Structure: have/has been + Verb (Past Participle)
Sentence:
Active---> I have taught English here for a long time.
Passive---> English has been taught here for a long time.
Present Continuous:
Structure: am/are/is being + Verb-ing
Sentence:
Active---> I am teachin English.
Passive---> English is being taught.
Passive---> English is being taught.
Past Simple:
Structure: was/were
Sentence:
Sentence:
Active---> I wrote a letter.
Passive---> The letter was written.
Present Simple:
Structure: is/am/are
Sentence:
Active---> I write a e-mail.
Passive---> The e-mail is written.
Passive---> The e-mail is written.
Future:
Structure: will be
Sentence:
Sentence:
Active---> I will write a letter.
Passive---> The letter will be written.
Future:
Structure: is going to be
Sentence:
Active---> I'm going to write a letter.
Passive---> The letter is going to be written.
Passive---> The letter is going to be written.

Hi Marissa
ResponderEliminarI think that you did a good job and just want to contribute in your blog with this.
Passive Voice:
We use the passive when we don’t know, or it isn’t important, who does the action.
To form the passive we need to emphasize the object and NOT the subject. To do this we need the verb to be and the past participle.
form of "to be" + past participle
==>passive voice
Active Voice:
In sentences written in active voice, the subject performs the action expressed in the verb; the subject acts. Most of our sentences are in active voice.
Example:
Ricardo writes a letter.
More examples
Present simple
She types the letters
The letters are typed
Present continuous
She is typing the letters
The letters are being typed
Present perfect simple
She has typed the letters
The letters have been typed
