Can any one tell me the explanation behind these choices?
1. We're ____________________.
1)teaching English.
2)being teach English.
3)being taught English.
4)having been taught.
I think if the question was "we are" we could choose "1" but in this form I think it is "3"
2. We're still angry about ____________________.
1)having lied to.
2)having lying to.
3)have been lied to.
4)having been lied to.
I think "1" because both are in the same tense
Why can't we say "I felt great to have been done that"
Also why can't we say "It wasn't easy to have been done that"
When should wr use "geround and infinitive perfect?"
Is my interpretation wrong? "We done sth hard in the past so It wasn't easy to have been done that"

"We're teaching English." Correct, but this is an active form, not a passive form. The structure is SUBJECT-VERB-OBJECT: "we" "are teaching" "English." I assume that this answer is wrong on your test because it is a test about using passive voice, and this sentence is not passive.
"We're being teach English." Wrong, because the verb "teach" needs to be put into past tense in a passive sentence. You have to say "being taught."
"We're being taught English." This is the correct passive structure.
"We're having been taught." Wrong, because "are having been" doesn't make sense. "Are" describes a present, continuous action (it is currently happening), but "having been" means it happened in the past. The correct form would be either "We are being taught" (someone is teaching us right now) or "We have been taught" (someone taught us, and now we understand).
"We're still angry about having lied to." Wrong, because an element is missing. If the sentence is passive, it should be "having been lied to" (we're mad because someone lied to us). If it's active, it should be something like "having lied to him" (we're mad because we lied to someone else).
"We're still angry about having lying to." Wrong, for similar reasons. The sentence is missing elements, and "lying" is a continuous present action, but "having" means it should be in the past.
"We're still angry about have been lied to." Wrong. After "about," you need to say "having," not "have." (If you want to use "have," you need to use a different structure: "We're still angry that we have been lied to.")
"We're still angry about having been lied to." Correct.
The phrase "been done that" is never correct. In a passive sentence, you can say that something has "been done" [by someone]. But you can never use "been done" in an active sentence. It is a passive form. "I have done that" is correct (and active), and "That has been done" is correct (and passive). But you can never say "I have been done that."

I don't know enough grammar to be able to explain why, but you are right that 1.1 is correct. Both 1.1 and 1.3 are valid answers. The difference between them is a question of who is learning and who is teaching. So, a student would not say 1.1.
Only 2.4 is grammatically correct.
