Answer 2

1. No, we do not use the passive when it's important who does something. The passive voice is used when the focus is on the action or when the doer of the action is unknown or unimportant.

2. Yes, we use the past participle of the main verb in a passive sentence. The passive voice is formed by using the auxiliary verb "to be" followed by the past participle of the main verb.

3. "Computers are made here" is correct. In the passive voice, the subject receives the action, so the correct form is "are made."

4. No, we do not use "in" after the passive to say who does or did something. Instead, we use the preposition "by" to indicate the doer of the action in a passive sentence.

5. Yes, we use "by" when we don't know who does or did something. "By" is used to indicate the doer of the action in a passive sentence when the doer is unknown or unimportant.

6. Both are correct. "These were made by Joe" indicates that Joe is the doer of the action, while "These were made in 1991" indicates the time or place of the action.
