Answer 1

1) the books are taken from the libraries
2) this tv programme is showed to them every evening
3) beatiful flowers are selled by them in this shop

Answer 2

To change the given sentences into the passive voice, we need to follow a specific structure:

Passive Voice Structure: Subject + auxiliary verb (be) + past participle of the main verb + preposition (if needed) + agent (optional)

Let's change each of the sentences into the passive voice:

1) Books are taken from the libraries by us. In this sentence, "we" becomes the agent, and the verb "take" changes to "are taken" in the passive voice.

2) This TV programme is shown every evening by them. In this sentence, "they" becomes the agent, and the verb "show" changes to "is shown" in the passive voice.

3) Beautiful flowers are sold in this shop. In this sentence, there is no agent mentioned, so we can omit it. The verb "sell" changes to "are sold" in the passive voice.

Note: In the passive voice, the agent (the doer of the action) is optional. If it is necessary to mention the agent, we can include it using the preposition "by."

The revised sentences are now in the passive voice, which emphasizes the action being done rather than the doer of the action.
