The Passive
We use the Passive when we are more interested in the action than the person who does it. We often use the word by to indicate who does the action.
To form the Passive we use the correct form of the verb to be and the Past Participle.
The Sun is bought by about 3.7 million people every day. (Present Simple)
When was the printing press invented? (Past Simple)
This story has not been reported in the press. (Present Perfect)
