In Active Voice, the one doing the action is mentioned as the
subject and is given more importance, whereas the other one
just participating in the action is mentioned as an object and given lesser importance.
When a sentence in past tense becomes passive, we use
“was, were” with the object of the sentence. The action
word is changed from progressive to past participle form.
In past progressive, we use the be-form (was, were) that’s suitable to the object along with “being”. The action word is changed from progressive to past participle form.
In past perfect, we use “had” and “been” with the object. The action word remains in past participle form. In past perfect progressive, we use “been” and “being” together. The action word remains in past participle form.
