**Английский язык (11 класс)** 1. **Переформулирование предложений в пассивном залоге:** 1. The Rolls Royce has been bought by a retired bank manager. **Explanation:** In the passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence, while the subject of the active sentence is either omitted or mentioned at the end of the passive sentence preceded by "by." 2. Autographed photos of Lionel Messi can be bought by a person in an auction. **Explanation:** In passive voice, the modal verb 'can' is retained, and the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence. 3. The bank robbers were caught by someone. **Explanation:** The active voice sentence is transformed into passive by making the object 'the bank robbers' the subject, and the doer of the action 'someone' is placed at the end of the passive sentence with 'by.' 4. I was given ten red roses by Peter. **Explanation:** The active sentence 'Peter gave me ten red roses' is converted into passive by making 'I' the subject, 'Peter' the object at the end of the passive sentence, and adding the past participle of 'give' with 'was.' 5. The money was donated by a pop star whose name is still unknown. **Explanation:** The unknown pop star whose name is still unknown becomes the subject of the passive sentence, while 'donated the money' is transformed into the passive voice with 'was.' By converting these sentences to passive voice, the focus shifts from the doer of the action to the receiver or the object of the action.
