Final answer:

The student's original sentences are changed into passive voice, transforming the object of each active sentence into the subject of the passive sentence. For example, 'Her new book will probably be translated into a number of foreign languages.'

Step-by-step explanation:

Changing sentences from the active voice to the passive voice involves making the object of the active sentence the subject of the passive sentence. For each sentence, we will provide the passive voice transformation.

  • The football match ought to have been cancelled because of the awful weather.
  • A decision will not be made until the next morning.
  • The building ought to be knocked down before it falls down because it is dangerous.
  • Your luggage may be checked by a customs officer when you go through customs.
  • I wanted to be woken up at 6:30, so I told the hotel receptionist.
  • Her new book will probably be translated into a number of foreign languages.
  • You would be arrested if a policeman were kicked by you.
  • The missing boy can't be found anywhere by the police who are looking for him.
  • It is questioned whether less money should be spent by you.
  • The injured man had to be carried because he couldn't walk.
