Changing a Tyre

Writing about a Process 5: Active to Passive

Write 150 words on how to change a spare tyre. Use the passive.

Most people own cars these days and enjoy the comfort of driving where they want and when they want, but sometimes there are problems. Getting a puncture is one of the most common problems. In this essay I will show you the steps needed to change a tyre if you are unlucky enough to get a puncture.

First the nuts on the wheel should be loosened. The second step is to raise the car with a jack. Next, the nuts are removed and the wheel is taken off. After that, the spare wheel is put on, and the nuts are replaced. Then, the car is lowered to the ground. Finally, make sure the nuts are completely tightened before you drive away.

It can be seen that changing a tyre is not difficult. As long as the right equipment is used and the right procedure is followed, you will be able to continue your journey quickly.
