Here's why you should use the active voice:
1. It lets you know who/what is performing the action, instead of leaving it to the reader to figure it out.
2. It makes the writing less repetitive because each descriptive word becomes a verb, instead of "to be" being in every sentence.

However, active voice and simple sentence structure should be used when possible to avoid redundant, flowery language.
