Passive Voice - tugas Softskill 2 Bahasa Inggris Bisnis

Passive Voice

The passive voice is a grammatical construction (specifically, a "voice"). The noun or noun phrase that would be the object of an active sentence (such as Our troops defeated the enemy) appears as the subject of a sentence with passive voice (e.g. The enemy was defeated by our troops).

 The subject of a sentence or clause featuring the passive voice typically denotes the recipient of the action (the patient) rather than the performer (the agent). The passive voice in English is formed periphrastically: the usual form uses the auxiliary verb be (or get) together with the past participle of the main verb.

Simple Present Tense
Formula : S + to be (is, am, are) + V-3
Example:
Active: My mother always cleans the floor every morning.
Passive: The floor is always cleaned by my mother every morning.
Simple Past Tense
Formula: S + to be (was, were) + V-3
Example:
Active: Fadhila watched the movie in the theatre last night.
Passive: The movie was watched by Fadhila in the theatre last night.

Present Continuous Tense
Formula: S + (is, am, are) + being + V-3
Example:
Active: They are making a rainbow cake now.
Passive: A rainbow cake is being made by them now
Past Continuous Tense
Formula: S + (was, were) + being + V-3
Example:
Active: She was buying some books last night.
Passive: Some books were being bought by her last night.
Present Perfect Tense
Formula: S + (have, has) + been + V-3  
Example:
Active: The manager has interviewed some candidates
Passive: Some candidates have been interviewed by the manager.
Past Perfect Tense
Formula: S + (had) + been + V-3
Example:
Active: Carroll had made a good decision to leave Liverpool.
Passive: A good decision had been made by Carroll to leave Liverpool.

*Modal auxiliary Will, Shall, Must, Can, May (Present modal)
  Would, Should, Could, Might (Past modal)
Examples:
Active: Before I got an injury, I could climb Mount Rinjani.

Fossil fuel related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions compared to five of the IPCC's "SRES" emissions scenarios. The dips are related to global recessions. Image source: Skeptical Science. Global warming and climate change are terms for the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system and its related effects.
