The sentence "The girl was given a medal by the mayor for her bravery" is in passive voice. In passive voice constructions, the subject of the sentence (in this case, "the girl") is the recipient of the action rather than the doer of the action. The doer, "the mayor," is introduced by the preposition "by."
Is this sentence passive or active voice? The girl was given a medal by the mayor for her bravery?
