Explanation:

In English language, the voice of a sentence can either be passive or active.

A sentence is said to be ACTIVE if the subject is performing the action (verb). Hence, the sentence is referring to the subject doing the verb's action directly. For example;

1. Phil went to a movie with his friends

2. Karl gave a touching speech at his

graduation ceremony

3. Fred played with a monkey during

his first trip to a zoo

These are examples of sentences (1,2,3) in active voice because the subjects are performing the actions in the sentence.

On the contrary, a sentence is in the PASSIVE VOICE when the subject is acted upon by the verb in the sentence. In other words, the subject becomes the receiver of the veeb's action. For example;

4. The peanut butter is being added

to the cake by the chef

5. The blue dress had been put on

display by the store assistant

6. Jacob's party will be attended by

everyone in town

The above examples (4,5,6) are all in passive voices because the subjects in the sentences are acted upon by the verbs.
