Now, let's break down the sentence and explain the process step by step:
Identify the subject, verb, and object:
- Subject: They
- Verb: are cleaning
- Object: the room
Rearrange the sentence in the passive voice:
- Object (the room) + Verb (is being cleaned) + Preposition (by) + Subject (them)
Final passive voice sentence: The room is being cleaned by them.
Explanation:
- The active sentence "They are cleaning the room" has been changed to the passive voice sentence "The room is being cleaned by them."
- In the passive voice, the object of the active sentence (the room) becomes the subject, the verb is changed to its passive form (is being cleaned), and the subject of the active sentence (they) is introduced using the preposition "by."
- The correct option in this case is option C: is being cleaned.

To change the sentence "I sent the parcel in the morning" into passive voice, we need to identify the subject, verb, and object in the sentence.
Subject: I

The correct passive voice sentence is "The parcel was sent in the morning."
Explanation:

In this case, the correct form is "was sent" because the action of sending the parcel (sent) happened in the past.
Therefore, the correct passive voice sentence is "The parcel was sent in the morning."
