 When the agent is not know. In an Active sentence we need to include the agent as Subject;
Using a passive allows us to omit the agent by leaving out the prepositional phrase with By.
 My office was broken into when I was on holiday. ( Unknown agent )
 These boxes should be handled with care.
( Unimportant agent )
