Verbs can be in the active or passive voice.
Active- the subject "does" the action of the sentence.
Passive- the subject doesn't "do" the action. Instead, the action is done to it.
Always ask who or what is performing the action.
a.
John reads the book
b.
The book is read by John.
The SAT will want you to change sentences from Passive to Active
