    The document provides examples of sentences rewritten in the passive voice using personal and impersonal constructions. Ten sentences are given that are originally in the active voice and state what various people say, expect, believe, or report. Each sentence is then rewritten in the passive voice, with the first part giving an impersonal "It is said/expected/believed/reported" construction and the second part using a personal passive construction with the original subject becoming the object.
