We form the passive with the verb to be and the past participle of the verb. We use the passive
when the action or the object is more important than the person or thing which does the action: English is spoken all over the world.
when we don’t know the subject (the person or thing that does/did the action): The painting was stolen from the museum.
to describe processes: The milk is taken to the factory then it is made into butter and cheese.
Using by
We use by to say who or what did the action, when this fact is important:
