Answer 2

I will answer your question in detail. To put the verbs in brackets into Present or Past Continuous Active or Passive, you need to follow some rules :

- For the Present Continuous Active, use the structure: Subject + is/are/am + verb (ing) + object. For example: They are painting the doors. - For the Present Continuous Passive, use the structure: Object + is/are/am + being + verb (III form) + by + subject. For example: The doors are being painted (by them). - For the Past Continuous Active, use the structure: Subject + was/were + verb (ing) + object. For example: He was driving at over 100 kilometres when the accident happened. - For the Past Continuous Passive, use the structure: Object + was/were + being + verb (III form) + by + subject. For example: The road was being widened (by the workers).

Using these rules, you can complete the sentences as follows:

1. There are no doors. They are being painted. 2. The house was being redecorated when I arrived. 3. The workers were making our street one-way. 4. This type of computers now is being manufactured in many European countries. 5. He was driving at over 100 kilometres when the accident happened. 6. When I left the laboratory, the lab assistant still was testing the device. 7. We couldn’t ride that way because the road was being widened. 8. The countries are competing with each other to build the tallest building. 9. Ann can’t use her office at the moment. It is being redecorated. 10. The photocopier broke down yesterday, but now it’s OK. It is working again.

I hope this helps you understand the Present or Past Continuous Active or Passive.
