Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. It is not important or not known, however, who or what is performing the action.
In the passive sentence, the object of an active verb becomes the subject of the passive verb.
Only transitive verbs are used in the passive. Intransitive verbs such as happen, sleep, come and seem cannot be used in the passive.
When rewriting active sentences in passive voice, note the following:
1.the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence
2.the finite form of the verb is changed (to be + past participle)
3.the subject of the active sentence becomes by Agent in the passive sentence (or is dropped)
4.Only active sentence containing object which can be changed into passive form
5.The two forms should have the same tenses
AGENT (OR BY AGENT)
IN A PASSIVE CLAUSE, WE USUALLY USE A PHRASE BEGINNING WITH BY IF WE WANT TO MENTION THE AGENT - THE PERSON OR THING THAT DOES THE ACTION, OR THAT CAUSES WHAT HAPPENS.
EXAMPLES:
MY MOTHER MAKES THE SANDWICH EVERY MORNING.
SUBJECT VERB1+S/ES O C (ADV. OF TIME)
THE SANDWICH IS MADE BY MY MOTHER EVERY MORNING.
SUBJECT O BE+V3 AGENT C (ADV. OF TIME)
WHAT ABOUT OTHER TENSES?
PRESENT CONTINUOUS : [ S + TO BE + BEING +V3 (PAST PARTICIPLE)
PRESENT PERFECT: [ S + HAS/HAVE + BEEN + V3 (PAST PARTICIPLE)
Here are the examples:

If you want to change an active sentence which has two objects into its passive forms, there are two ways:

indirect object direct object
Passive: The indirect object as the subject
Abi’s girl-friend is being given a bunch of flower
or
Passive: The direct object as the subject
A bunch of flower is being given to Abi’s girl-friend
Hey, how about the negative and interrogative?
