Объяснение:
Если в предложении есть наречия частотности типа usually, always и т.п. или выражения типа every year, every day, либо вообще нет никаких обстоятельств времени, то нужно использовать Present Simple. В пассивном залоге эта форма выглядит так:
am/is/are + past participle (3-я форма глагола).
Если же в предложении есть отсылка к прошлому в виде слов yesterday, last week, last year, то надо использовать глагол в Past Simple. Пассивный залог в этом времени образуется так:
was / were + past participle (3-я форма глагола).
