In passive voice sentences, the subject receives the action instead of performing the action. The agent (the one performing the action) is introduced using the preposition "by". It is important to note that not all active voice sentences can be converted to passive voice and vice versa, as it depends on the structure of the sentence and the meaning conveyed.

A) Do you like an - orange juice?
- Нет, в данном предложении неверно использован неопределенный артикль "an". В данном случае нужно использовать например "some" или вообще не использовать артикль. Правильный вопрос будет выглядеть: "Do you like orange juice?"

b) Tom has got a/— new leather coat

c) Kate teaches at a/
