Ideal Scenarios to Avoid Using Passive Voice:Avoid using the passive voice when the focus of the sentence is on who is performing the action rather than what is being acted upon. If the doer of the action is more important than the receiver, the sentence should remain in the active voice for clarity and emphasis.Examples:%u2022 The principal will announce the results tomorrow.(The focus is on %u201cthe principal,%u201d who is performing the action, so the sentence should be in active voice.)%u2022 Sehrish prepared a detailed report for the meeting.(The emphasis is on %u201cSehrish,%u201d the doer of the action, making active voice the better choice.)
