Plz help: change the voice of the verb

[rabiaa]

In past papers it's written:
Chnage the voice of the verb in the following sentences (what does this mean..what exactly do they want us to do?):

1) Why should I be suspected by you?
2) Who did this?
3) The establishment is pleased with your performance.

Can you please solve these few so that I understand what is asked from us.

Thank you

They actually want you to change the active voice sentences into passive voice ones or the other way round. We shall change the said sentences as:
1. Why should you suspect me?
2. By whom was this done?
3. Your performance pleases the establishment.

where did his 'TRY' go ???

you can not skip any word that makes sense in the sentence dear..

Here is the correct passive of it.

It is intentionally tried by him to beat me.
or if you want to make both parts passive it goes like this
it is intentionally tried by him to get me beaten.
it is like he tries to cath fish..
it is tried by him to catch fish...
