In technical safety documentation, which sentence correctly employs the passive voice with a continuous aspect to describe ongoing work?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. The main hydraulic pipeline is currently being inspected by certified technicians
- Step 1: The present continuous passive form follows the formula 'is/are + being + past participle': 'is currently being inspected'. Answer: The main hydraulic pipeline is currently being inspected by certified technicians. Why not the others: 'is inspected' denotes routine simple present rather than ongoing action, 'has inspected' is active voice, and 'was been' is ungrammatical.
