Why do we use passive voice In everyday situations we use it when we do not know or care who performs the action. It makes your writing formal and impersonal or objective, Writing allows learners more thinking time if they use the passive voice. To make the context more coherence ( Given information--- new information)

Reports of crimes or legal procedures – He was sentenced to two years in prison. Newspaper reports – The match was postponed due to a heavy fog. Scientific writing – The findings have been presented at the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco..

Announcements – Flight BA 302 to London is delayed by two hours. Notices – Customers are requested not to smoke. Passive voice is used more in written language, not in spoken language
