Zorluk: OrtaActive and Passive Voice Transformation

Complete the passive sentence below by providing the exact passive verb phrase that correctly transforms the given active sentence while preserving its original tense and aspect.

Cevap:Active: The regulatory committee is auditing the financial statements of the firm.
Passive: The financial statements of the firm 【are being audited】 by the regulatory committee.

Cevap

are being audited
The active sentence uses the present continuous tense ('is auditing'). When converting to passive voice, the object 'The financial statements of the firm' becomes the new subject. Since 'statements' is plural, it requires the plural auxiliary 'are', followed by 'being' to express continuous aspect, and the past participle 'audited'.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the tense and aspect of the active verb phrase.
The active verb phrase 'is auditing' is in the present continuous (progressive) tense.
Maintaining exact tense and aspect is mandatory in active-to-passive voice transformation.
2
Determine the subject of the passive sentence and check subject-verb agreement.
The new subject is 'The financial statements of the firm', which is plural ('statements').
The auxiliary verb must agree in number with the new passive subject, requiring 'are' instead of 'is'.
3
Form the present continuous passive verb structure.
Present continuous passive formula: auxiliary 'be' (are) + being + past participle (audited) = 'are being audited'.
The continuous aspect is retained using 'being' followed by the past participle of the main verb.
