"This discovery was made by various people." The active voice of the sentence above is (a voz ativa da frase acima é):
Various people made the discovery.
Portanto, a alternativa correta é a A
Explicação:
1.
The oldest house in the USA was built in 1624.
(Nesse caso, usamos o passado do verbo "to be" e o particípio passado do verbo "build" para construir a voz passiva no passado)
2.
Two thieves were arrested by the police last night.
(Nessa questão a construção é parecida com a anterior, porém, o sujeito é composto, thieves = ladrões, então o verbo "to be" assume a forma were)
Lembrando que o verbo "to be" no passado vai fica WAS ou WERE, dependendo do sujeito da oração.
O verbo "to arrest" é regular, portanto o particípio passado é igual ao simple past (passado simples), basta acrescentar -ed, ficando "arrested"
3. Veja os exemplos:
It was done - Foi feito
They were done - Foram feitos
He was arrested - Ele foi preso
They were arrested - Eles foram presos
I was invited to the party - Eu fui convidado para a festa
We were invited to the party - Nós fomos convidados para a festa
4.
Lembre-se da conjugação no simple past (passado simples)
I was
You were
He was
She was
It was
We were
They were
5.
"This discovery was made by various people." The active voice of the sentence above is (a voz ativa da frase acima é):
A voz ativa é constituída pelo sujeito (Various people), pelo verbo no simple past (made) e pelo complemento.
Voz passiva: Esta descoberta foi feita por várias pessoas - This discovery was made by various people
Voz ativa: Várias pessoas fizeram esta descoberta - Various people made this discovery.
Veja que o passado simples e o passado particípio de "make" é "made". Por isso vemos sempre a expressão "made in China" em produtos importados daquele país.
