We hope that we shall win the match.

  • A.We hope that we shall win the match.
  • B.It is hoped that the match will be won by us.
  • C.Match winning is our hope.
  • D.The match is hoped to be won.

Answer: B

Correct answer: It is hoped that the match will be won by us

Hope takes a clause, so the passive needs the anticipatory it and a that clause; the inner verb then goes passive too. The option turning the whole thing into the match is hoped to be won loses the clause construction.
