Explanation:

• A verb is said to be in a passive voice when the subject of the sentence is acted on by the verb.
• A verb is in the passive voice when its form shows that something is done to the person or thing and is denoted by the subject.
• For example, "The ball was thrown by him," the ball is the subject and it is receiving the action of the verb, and was thrown is in the passive voice.
• When a sentence is written in the active voice, the subject of the sentence performs the action but when a sentence is written in the passive voice, the subject receives the action.
• The passive voice is used to show interest in any given person or an object that experiences an action rather than the person or object that performs the action.
• When we change the speech from indirect to direct, we use the reporting verb as 'say' or 'said,' and remove the conjunctions like that, to, if, whether, etc.
• We insert quotation marks in the direct speech
