  The Passive is used :
  
  when the agent (= the person who does the action) is unknown,
  unimportant or obvious from the context.
  Jane was shot. (We don’t know who shot her.)
  This church was built in 1815. (unimportant agent)
  He has been arrested. (obviously by the police)
  
  2. to make more polite or formal statements.
  The car hasn’t been cleaned. (more polite)
  (You haven’t cleaned the car. – less polite)
  
  3. when the action is more important than the agent,
  as in processes, instructions, events, reports, headlines, news items,
  and advertisements.
  30 people were killed in the earthquake.
  
  4. to put emphasis on the agent.

  After modal verbs
  ( will, can, must, have to, should, may, ought to)
  we use be + past participle.
  
  You can use the machine for cutting bread.
  
  The machine can be used for cutting bread.
  
  With verbs taking two objects it is more usual
  to begin the passive sentence with the person.
  
  I sent her some roses.
  
  She was sent some roses. (more usual)
  
  Some roses were sent to her. (less usual)
