I have these two sentences:



  • Photographers photographed Brad Pitt as he left the restaurant.

  • Our teacher has given us lots of homework this week.

These are in in active voice, and the goal for me is to change them to the passive form. Let me show you what I have tried:



As Brad Pitt left the restaurant, he was photographed by photographers



Brad Pitt had left the restaurant when he was photographed by Photographers



and



Lots of homework this week has been given us by our teacher



Lots of homework have been given this week by our teacher



We are given lots of homework this week by our teacher



This week we are given lots of homeworks by our teacher



But the teacher has marked them as incorrect. So I know that I need to write first the subject, but what I'm doing wrong?
