Объяснение
Для преобразования предложения в пассивный залог следует помнить следующие правила:
- Используется форма "to be" в нужном времени в сочетании с прошедшим participle (третий вспомогательный глагол).
- Субъект (тот, кто выполняет действие) может быть опущен, если не важен для понимания предложения.
- Когда предложение в настоящем времени, как «is using», в пассивном будет «is being used». В прошедшем времени «switched off» становиться «was switched off», и так далее.
