Correct Answer: The ball is being hit by them.


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who acts. Hence, the object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the passive voice in the case of the present continuous tense is: Singular object + is + being + past participle form of the main verb + by followed by the agent of the action.

Therefore, the sentence in passive voice is: The ball is being hit by them.
