The document provides information on simple present and past passive verb forms in English. It begins by defining the simple present and past passive, showing how they are formed using "be" verbs like "is" and "are" plus the past participle of the main verb. Examples are given like "The 'Terracotta Army' is visited by nearly two million people every year" and "The Empire State Building was built in 1931." It then discusses how to form passive voice questions and notes that some verb participles are irregular. The rest of the document provides additional examples and practice exercises for learners to practice simple present and past passive structures.
