The difference between Chinese and English tenses

Chinese English
1. People take action. (general status) People take actions. (verb, pay attention to the conjugation of the verb)
2. People are taking action. (ongoing) People are taking actions.(be+动词ing)
3. People have taken action. (What have you been doing) People have taken actions. (have + past participle of verb)
4. People are still taking action. (Already doing something, but still doing it) People have been taking actions.(have+been+动词ing)

Current state

1.我打扫房间了。      I clean the room.
2.我在打扫房间。      I am cleaning the room.
3.我已经打扫房间了。   I have cleaned the room.
4.我还在打扫房间。    I have been cleaning the room.

Note: Auxiliary verb is part of the predicate

Translate the following sentences into passive voice

1. I clean the room. (do) The room is cleaned by me.
2. I am cleaning the room. (be doing) The room is being cleaned by me.
3. I cleaned the room. (have done) The room has been cleaned by me.
4. I'm still cleaning the room. (have been doing) The room has been being cleaned by me.

Note that the deformation of passive voice is "be+verb ed+by", then "be cleaned" here is a whole. When deforming, you only need to pay attention to the change of be.
