    This looks like homework to me. I can do one for you and you should do the rest.

    1. Students were expected not to talk during the examination.

    To little angel: Also need to convert the subject (we) to object (us) for completeness.

    A tricky one:
    3. no one has ever known him to be dishonest.
    He has never been known to be dishonest by anyone

    Why don't we keep the 1st sentence in Present tense instead?
    "Students are expected by us not to talk during the examination"

    Thất bại lớn nhất của đời người là tự đại
    Đáng thương nhất của đời người là tự ti.
    Tự đại + Tự ti = thất bại đáng thương nhất
