This document discusses using the passive voice in three sentences or less: 1. To form the passive voice with no agent expressed, use "be" verbs like "was" and "were" instead of active verbs like "did" and "doesn't." 2. To express an idea passively when people are the agent, say "It is said/thought/believed/claimed" rather than "People say/think/believe/claim." 3. To form the passive voice with "let," use constructions like "let myself be heard" rather than "don't let people hear you."
