Changing from Active into Passive.

The object of the active verb becomes the subject in the new sentence.

e.g. Picasso painted that picture.

The active verb changes into a passive form and the subject of the active verb becomes the agent. The agent is introduced with by or it is omitted.

e.g. That picture was painted by Picasso.

After modal verbs (will, can, must, have to, should, may, ought to) we use be + past participle.

e.g. You can use the machine for cutting bread.

e.g. The machine can be used for cutting bread.

With verbs taking two objects it is more usual to begin the passive sentence with the person.

e.g. I sent her some roses.

e.g. She was sent some roses. (more usual) or Some roses were sent to her. (less usual)

We put the agent (= the person who does the action) into the passive sentence only if it adds information. When the agent is unknown, unimportant or obvious it is omitted. Agents such as people (in general), they, somebody etc. are omitted.

e.g. Bell invented the telephone.

e.g. The telephone was invented by Bell. (The agent is not omitted because it adds information.)

e.g. Somebody murdered him.

e.g. He was murdered (by somebody). (unknown agent is omitted.)

e.g. The police arrested him.

e.g. He was arrested (by the police). (obvious agent is omitted.)
