14. What is the form of the passive? In the passive, the object of an active verb becomes the subject of the passive verb. be + past participle Active: Freddie ate a sandwich. Passive: The sandwich was eaten by Freddie Notice that the subject of the active verb follows by in the passive sentence. This noun is called the “agent.”

22. 11-3 Using the Passive Usually the passive is used without by-phrase. The passive is most frequently used when it is not known or not important to know exactly who performs an action. Example: The sweater was made in Taiwan. If the speaker knows who performs an action, usually the active is used. Example: My sister made this sweater. However, the speaker can choose to use the passive with a by-phrase when they know who performed the action to emphasize the subject of a sentence. Example: This sweater was made by my sister.
