It is an active voice sentence. Its passive voice is, "It is time for tea to be taken."
To write in passive voice, you put the actor (subject) second. Active - Sammy made tea. Passive - The tea was made by Sammy. Passive voice often has the word by before the actor. Note: Instead of I made tea, you would need to write, "The tea was made by me." About how to make tea, think about the precise steps to make tea. Put these in chronological order. Write about each step, but in passive voice.
We usually speak in the active voice.The workers pick the tea and pack it into boxes.But if it is not necessary to know who did the action (verb) then the passive voice can be used.The tea is picked and packed into boxes.
Tea is not liked by me.
"I threw the ball" is a sentence in the active voice. "The ball was thrown by me" is in the passive voice. In Political language, you will often encounter the passive voice. Rather than saying "I made a mistake," you might hear the politician say "Mistakes were made."Passive is formed with - be verb + past participle. If you want to say who does the action of a passive verb add by + noun phrase at the end of the sentence. This is called the agent.For example:present simple active = eat / asks. passive = is eaten / is askedWe eat bread at lunch time = Bread is eaten at lunch time (by us)past simple active = ate /asked. passive = was eaten / was askedWe ate bread at lunch time. Bread was eaten at lunch time.Passive is often used to describe a process where it is not important who or what does the action for example:The tea leaves are picked in the morning and they are taken to the drying sheds. After it is processed the tea is stored in large warehouses.
it is time tea should be taken or tea to be taken.
Tea is made by steeping tea leaves or tea bags in hot water, allowing them to infuse until the desired strength is achieved.
An active sentence has the word order -- subject + verb + object. In an active sentence you can see who does the action. eg -- The dog chased the cat. (the dog does the action)In a passive sentence the word order is -- object + verb. The person or thing that does the action (agent) is not necessarily given eg -- The cat was chasedIf you want to say who or what did the action in a passive sentence you add it at the end -- by + noun/noun phraseeg -- The cat was chased by the dog. or The cat was chased by a pack of dogsPassive sentences are often used if you a writing about a process, where who or what does the action is not important. eg Tea is grown in China. It is processed and is packed in boxes.Or other sentences where the agent is not known. eg The Mona Lisa was painted around 1503.Or if the agent is the most important piece of information. eg The painting was painted by Van GoghA passive sentence verb has the form -- be + past participle eg was chased, were chased, is being chased, had been chasedetc
The verb used in the passive voice is some version of to be (am, is, are, was, were, etc.) combined with the participle form of another verb (-ing, -ed or -en).What distinguishes the passive voice from the active is that the object of the sentence has been 'promoted' to the subject, which either demotes the subject into becoming the object, or leaves the sentence without an object altogether:Active voice: I took the money. (I is the subject, money is the object, took is the verb.)Passive voice: The money was taken by me.(Money is now the subject, me has become the object, and the verb is now was taken.)Passive voice: The money was taken. (Identical to the above, except that the object has been removed.)The passive voice is considered weaker than the active voice, and can be used as a way of distancing oneself or shifting responsibility. This is why teachers (and often parents) prefer that you communicate using the active voice instead.ANDPassive is used if the actor/doer of the action is not important egThe Mona Lisa was painted in the 16th century.Passive is often used to describe a process where it is not important who does the action of the verb egThe tea is picked and then it is taken to the factory. In the factory it is dried and packed into boxes.
The passive voice is for when the object is given preference over the subject.Active: I don't make my bed on weekends. Passive: My bed isn't made on weekends.Active: The police are holding him for questioning. Passive: He is being held by the police for questioning.You can change the active voice to the passive voice by changing an object to a subject. Your original sentence could be "The men took the chair to the museum." In the passive voice, the chair is the lead: "The chair was taken by the men to the museum." The same activity is taking place in both.Sometimes, the change leaves out the original subject. For "Fred has eaten dinner" is the active voice, In the passive voice dinner becomes the subject, so the sentence may become "Dinner has been eaten." Here Fred, the original subject, has disappeared. We no longer know who ate the dinner, we merely know that it has been eaten by someone. The passive voice, therefore, may be less informative or contain different information.- Passive is used when the actor/doer of the action is not being stressed.Example: The Mona Lisa was painted in the 16th century.- It can be used when describing a process, where it doesn't matter who does the action.Example: Tea is grown on plantations. It is pickedand dried, and then it is packed into boxes.
Active sentences tell us who did the action of the verb. They have the form: subject + verb + objecteg The dog chased the cat.Passive sentences allow us to put something that is not the doer of the verb in the subject position.eg The cat was chasedYou can if you want, say who or what chased the cat by adding the agent at the end of the sentence.eg The cat was chased by the dogPassive is used when the actor/agent is not important or is not known. Often when describing a process passive is usedeg Tea is grown in Sri Lanka. It is picked and taken to processing plants where it is dried and packed for exportOr if the actor is the most important bit of information we can add it at the end for emphasis.The Mona Lisa is a very well known painting. It was painted by Leonardo da Vinci
