In passive some verbs are not follwed by 'by'. Some prepositions follow them instead.
e.g.
This book interests me. Active
I'm interested in this book. Passive
The combinations are as follows:
Surprised at
Amazed at
Astounded at
Pleased with
Known to
Annoyed with sb
Annoyed at sth
Satisfied with
Interested in
Decorated with
Frustrated with
Concerned with
Impressed with
Excited about &so on.
