Comentários

• d) The bridge is being repaired.
  
  The bridge is being repaired. Not necessary to add "by them". Passive voice is used when it becomes necessary to shift the focus off the actionriser in an utterance and onto the end receiver of the perpetuated action. To be is required in order to realise the passive voice.
  
  Em voz passiva, o foco da oracao esta no agente que recebe a acao. É necessario usar to be e, diferente do portugues, admite-se voz passiva com objeto indiretos:
  Someone has slept in this bunk.::This bunk has been slept in.
