The passive voice


Dear student
Passive voice is used when we focus on action more than who or what is performing the action
Form of passive
Subject+verb be+past participle
when rewriting active into passive note tge following
.the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence
.the verb is changed into (be+pastparticiple)
.The subject of the active aentence becomes the object of the passive sentence (or dropped)
Examples of passive
Present simple
active          They plant olive trees in the field.
passive         Olive trees are planted in the field.
Past simple
They planted olive trees in the field
Olive trees were planted in the field

Now please change the following into passive
Ann sends emails to her friends.
Sue made a tasty cake last week
Muna helped her nother in the housework
