- My car was repaired by my friend.
- English is spoken by many students in my class.
- My best friend was arrested by the police.
- Her homework was finished by eight o'clock.

By transforming the active voice sentences into the passive voice, the focus shifts from the doer of the action to the receiver of the action, resulting in sentences that emphasize what is being done rather than who is doing it.
