5. Lesson 10, 05 November 9b

6. Passive is used to:  To highlight an event, rather than his author, that could be unknown;  To describe a procedure, an operation in scientific range;  To give instructions and express prohibitions.

7. When rewriting active sentences in passive voice, note the following:  the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence  the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence (or is dropped) For example: «People don’t use this road much» «This road isn’t used much»

8. When we use a passive verb we say “WHAT HAPPENS TO THE SUBJECT ” For example: «This road isn’t used much»

9. When we use the passive, who or what causes the action is often unknown or unimportant: For example: «A lot of money was stolen in the robbery». (somebody stole it, but we don’t know who)

10. If we want to say who does or what causes the action, we use : “BY ”
