Перевод задания: Прочитайте предложения и скажите, как образуются отрицания и вопросы в настоящем и прошедшем длительном пассивном залоге.

Present Progressive Passive: отрицание образуется по схеме am/is/are + not + being + Participle II. Вопрос образуется по схеме Am/Is/Are + подлежащее + being + Participle II?

Примеры: The papers are not being signed. (Документы не подписываются.) Is a new hotel being built? (Строится ли новая гостиница?)

Past Progressive Passive: отрицание образуется по схеме was/were + not + being + Participle II. Вопрос образуется по схеме Was/Were + подлежащее + being + Participle II?

Примеры: The papers were not being signed. (Документы не подписывались.) Was the hotel being built? (Строилась ли гостиница?)

Перевод: В настоящем длительном пассивном залоге отрицание образуется с помощью am/is/are not being и третьей формы глагола, а вопрос — с помощью am/is/are перед подлежащим. В прошедшем длительном пассивном залоге используются was/were not being в отрицании и was/were перед подлежащим в вопросе.
