дополнениеактивного предложения становитсяподлежащимпассивного предложения;
подлежащимактивного залога можно пренебречь в пассивном залоге или оно превратится вагента, совершающего действие с предлогомbyперед ним;
глагол активного предложения превратится в причастие прошедшего времени.
Сравните: The students examined mice behavior. Mice behavior was examined by the students.
Только переходные глаголы (т.е. глаголы, за которыми следует дополнение) могут быть переведены из активного залога в пассивный: All students handed in the reports.The reports were handed in by all students.

Однако предпочтительнее начинать предложение с лица, а не с предмета:active:Tomgaveme a gift. passive:a)I was givenagiftbyTom.(предпочтительнее)
b)A gift was given to me by Tom.
