    Unit4ThePassiveWe form the passivewith the verb to be in the approp'tiate tense andthe past participle of the main verb. Only transitive verbs (verbswhichtake an object) can be used in the passive.

    252

    We use the passive: when the personor peoplewho do the action are unknown,

    unimportant or obvious from the context. A parcel wasleft onmydoorstep.(Theidentity of thedelivererisunknown.) Thefilm wasmadein 1903.(It'snot imporfant to know who made it.) Passportsmust bepresentedat the border crossing.(It'sobvious that thepassport holdersmust present theirpassports.) when the action itself ismore important than the person/peoplewho do it, as in news headlines, newspaper articles, formalnotices, advertisements, instructions, processes, etc. Violatorswillbe heavily fined.

    when we want to avoid taking responsibility for an action or whenwe refer to anunpleasant event and we do not want to saywho orwhat is to blame. Mistakesweremade in the final copy.Theoriginaldocuments havebeenmisplaced.

    Changing from the active to the passive: the object of the activesentencebecomesthe subject in the

    passive sentence the active verb remains in the same tense but changes into apassive form the subject of the active sentence becomes the agent, and iseither introduced with the preposi tion by or isomitted.

    ACTIVESubjectThegardener

    Verbwas watering

    Objectthe plants.

    Subject Verb AgentPASSIVE The plants were beingwatered bythe gardener. Only transitive verbs (verbs that take an object) can be

    changed into the passive. Active: I slept well last night.(intransitiveverb)No passiveform: L8MR;htwaswe!!s.'pt.Note: some transitive verbs (have,be,exist,seem,fit, suit,resemble,lack, etc) cannot be changed into the passive. I have a chronicback problem. NOT: .~6f:mm;c 8ack f;;eBle!'R ;! l i8 S BY! 'Re.

    We can use the verb to get instead of the verb to be ineverydayspeechwhen we talk about things that happen byaccident or unexpectedly. He gets paid on a monthly basis.(insteadofheispaid...) By + the agent is used to say who or what carries out anaction. With + instrument/material/ingredient is usedto saywhat the agent used. TheCupwaswon byArgentina.Thesteakwassprinkledwith whitepepper. The agent can be omitted when the subject is they, he,someone/somebody, people, one, etc. Nobodyfound theanswer.= Theanswerwasnot found. The agent is not omitted when it is a specific or importantperson, or when it is essential to the meaning of the sentence.Thenovel waswritten by Toni Morrison.

    With verbs which can take two objects such as bring, tell,send,show,teach,promise, buy,sell,read,offer,give, lend,etc,we can formtwo different passive sentences.My employer promised me apay rise. (active)I waspromiseda payrisebymy employer.(passive,more usual)Apay risewaspromisedtomebymy employer.passive,essusual) I f in an active sentence a preposit ion follows a verb, then in thepassive it is placed immediately after the verb. The tide washedthesandcastleaway. Thesandcaslte waswashed away by the tide. The verbs hear, help, see and make are followed by the bareinfinitive inthe activebut bythe to-infinitive inthe passive.Thepoliceofficermade thedrivermove hercar.Thedriverwasmade tomoveherear.

    Let becomes be allowed to in the passive. Betty let the childrenstayuppastmidnight.Thechildrenwere allowed to stay uppastmidnight. Toask questions in the passivewe follow the samerulesasforstatements,keepingin mind that the verb isin the interrogativeform. Haveyoubookedyourappointment?Hasyour appointmentbeenbooked(byyou)yet? When we want to find out who or what perforqJ.ed an action,the passive question form is Who/What .. . by?What was theulcercausedby?
