A Correct answer
Explanation

In passive voice subject of active voice becomes the object & vice-versa, and they interchange their places. This is an interrogative case. In such cases,  'subject' is preceded by 'auxilary'. 'Time' (being a singular subject, that too in present tense) needs auxilary 'is'. Option 2 is rejected as it is not the case of continuous tense. Hence, option 1.
