This passage uses personification. Words cannot actually be stiff or heavy, and they do not need to be pushed out of one's mouth, but these adjectives and actions give the reader a vivid picture of Molly trying to say this words, and struggling greatly to do so.

ANSWER: Passive verb forms are used to shift the focus off the agent and onto the subject.
There are two nouns in a basic sentence; a subject and an agent. The agent acts on the subject. Here, the subject is bolded and the agent is italicized.
I ate <em>cereal.
^ </em>That is an active sentence, because it focuses on the 'I'. Below are examples of passive sentences.
<em>
</em><em>Cereal </em>was eaten by me.
<em></em><em>Cereal </em>was eaten.
^As you can see, sometimes passive sentences don't even contain a subject. This is particularly useful when you want to divert attention from the agent, such as when your sibling asks where the last bit of cereal went (Doesn't <em></em>'The cereal was eaten' sound less guilty than 'I ate the cereal'?)
