Passive voice
Passive voice is a style of writing or speaking where the subject of a sentence receives the action instead of performing it. It emphasizes the object or receiver of the action rather than the doer. In passive voice, the sentence structure is typically "object + be verb + past participle verb." For example, "The cake was baked by Sarah" is in passive voice, whereas "Sarah baked the cake" is in active voice.
To change a sentence from active to passive voice, do the following:1. Move the active sentence's direct object into the sentence's subject slot2. Place the active sentence's subject into a phrase beginning with the preposition by3. Add a form of the auxiliary verb be to the main verb and change the main verb's formBecause passive voice sentences necessarily add words and change the normal doer-action-receiver of action direction, they may make the reader work harder to understand the intended meaning.http://www.towson.edu/ows/activepass.htm
