When you are learning new grammar structures the first step is learn the
grammar structure and try to memorize them. Also, you can see examples in sentences
but I think that is a good practice to see movies, soup operas or TV shows and
try to identify when they use the Passive Voice.
In the following video you can see examples of Passive Voice uses in
some movies. You will see that the intention of the speaker is focusing in the
receiver or the result of the action. Also, you will notice that you can use
this tense when you do not know who the agent of the action is or you think
that is not important to mention it.
Is common to find the Passive Voice in Academic publications, textbooks
and Scientific Blogs where the intention of the author is focusing in the result
of the action. Also, the encyclopedias, advertisements, news headlines and
reports use the Passive Voice to give an impersonal meaning to the message that
they want to communicate.
Finally, when you use Passive Voice you have to use transitive verbs to
form this tense.
