CONCLUSION
In accordance with the analysis of the theoretical and practical material of the course paper we can make the following conclusions:

1. 
   The Passive Voice is the category of the verb that shows that the subject is acted upon.
   
2. 
   The formation of the Passive Voice is the following: to be (in the required tense form) + Participle II (of the notional verb).
   
3. 
   The Passive Voice has the following tense forms:
   

• 
  The Present, Past and Future Indefinite;
  
• 
  The Present, Past and Future Perfect;
  
• 
  The Present and Past Continuous.
  

And it doesn’t have the Future Continuous, the Present, Past and Future Perfect Continuous forms.

4. 
   The Passive Voice can be used with modal verbs and there are 4 different kinds of passive sentences in English.
   

Also the Passive Voice is widely used in the scientific literature and less extended in the conversational speech.
The Passive Voice can express all the same that the Active Voice expresses and has the same functions in the sentence as the Active Voice has.
In combination with different modal verbs the Passive Voice can refer to the present, past and future action; all the more with modal verbs it may express the suggestion, ability, possibility, prediction and deduction in the sentence that is very important for English learners.
While working up sources of scientific literature we can sum up that in this kind of literature the Passive Voice is used mostly in Present Indefinite and affirmative form and less frequent in the Continuous form. Also it is hardly to find all kinds of the passive sentences in the scientific literature.
Thus, the material of the course paper gives better understanding of the theoretical material relating to the Passive Voice in English. And gathering up the practical analysis one can state that now it is easier for us to understand the formation and usage of the Passive Voice in the English language.
Also, we would like to repeat once more that we, English learners, need to know more about the Passive Voice; in particular we need more information about when and why it is used.
