2. Examples

     • The book was written by Stephen Chbosky
       • The car was stolen

3. GRAMATICAL RULES

   • It is formed by the verb to be , followed by the past participle of the verb
     • Subject+auxiliary verb(to be)+past participle

4. Also we use the passive voice to give more importance to the action and not to who performed it
