The rules of changing sentence from active voice to passive voice and vice-versa are:
Note: The following tenses cannot be changed into passive voice.
The sentence "The papers were graded by the teacher" can be changed to active voice as "The teacher graded the papers."
Change "be concise" to "write concise answers".
Active: She hits the table. 'She' is the subject and is doing the action. Passive: The table is hit by her. 'She' (or 'her' in this case) is doing the action but is not the subject.
To change interrogative present simple active voice sentences into passive voice, you typically move the object of the active sentence to the subject position in the passive sentence, and use a form of "be" along with the past participle of the verb. For example, change "Do you know the answer?" to "Is the answer known by you?"
Verbs in active voice focus on the subject performing the action, while verbs in passive voice focus on the action being done to the subject. In active voice, the subject of the sentence is doing the action, while in passive voice, the subject is receiving the action.
The committee approved the budget.
No. Quite the opposite. Try to write your sentences in the active voice unless you have to use the passive.

To change interrogative present simple active voice sentences into passive voice, you typically move the object of the active sentence to the subject position in the passive sentence, and use a form of "be" along with the past participle of the verb. For example, change "Do you know the answer?" to "Is the answer known by you?"
A passive sentence says that something happened but doesn't say who caused it to happen. For example: food was eaten. An active sentence says who did it. For example: Tom ate the food.
Yes, both transitive active and passive verbs have a subject or object as the action receiver. The only difference is that transitive passive has a subject receiving action while the transitive active has an object receiving action.
Verbs in active voice focus on the subject performing the action, while verbs in passive voice focus on the action being done to the subject. In active voice, the subject of the sentence is doing the action, while in passive voice, the subject is receiving the action.
This is a passive sentence. Passive sentences have a verb phrase -be + past participleThe verb phrase for this sentence is were converted
Active sentence: The park ranger could not find any endangered animals in the lorry. Passive sentence: No animals could be found in the lorry by the park ranger. HINT: Use of the word "by" is always a tip off that a sentence is passive. HINT 2: The noun that appears after "by" in any passive sentence can be flipped to the front of the sentence and made into the subject; all passive sentences can be flipped to be active sentences. It often takes thought and re-wording to switch passive to active.
