It is impossible to use the passive voice with an intransitive verb. For example, "The bird flies." cannot be made passive because there is no object. "I ate the doughnut." is made passive like this: "The doughnut was eaten by me." The object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive sentence.
Our has no bearing over whether a sentence is active or passive. It can be used in both. Active voice: A nice couple bought our house. Passive voice: Our house has been bought by a nice couple.

Active voice: "John attended school." Passive voice: "The school was attended by John." Passive voice: "Jane was helped by John." Active voice: "John helped Jane." In active voice, the subject of the sentence usually comes first and is doing the action to something else. In passive voice, the predicate is being acted upon by the subject. Passive voice tends to be harder to read , and it tends to use more words. So for the most part, you should avoid using passive voice.

The simple present tense can't be used in the passive voice. Simple present is the base form of a verb without the use of auxiliary verbs. Passive voice is created with a form of be (an auxiliary verb) and a past participle. Note: the previous sentence is an example of passive voice in the present tense. Is created is the passive verb.
