How to make the Passive

1. The Passive is made with a form of 'to be' + past participle e.g.,

2. Most past participles are made with the verb + ed - but many are irregular e.g.,

 send - sent, go - gone, teach - taught.

Books aren't used by students anymore.

b) Present Continuous Passive:

The web is being expanded at 1% a day.
