subject + 将 + object + verb + extra (= 把); task + 由 + person + verb; receiver + 叫/让 + doer + verb + extra (= 被)
叫 and 让 work like 被 in speech, but the doer must always follow them: 让人拿走了, never 让拿走了.

When to use 将, 由, 叫 and 让 for the Doer and the Receiver
These prepositions show who does an action and who receives it. 将 is the formal version of 把: it brings the object before the verb, and the verb needs something after it (a result, a place or 了): 请将作业放在桌子上. 由 introduces the person in charge of doing something: 这件事由我负责. 叫 and 让 are spoken versions of 被 for the passive, but unlike 被 they must always be followed by the doer: 蛋糕叫弟弟吃了.
请将作业放在桌子上。
Please put your homework on the desk.
我的蛋糕叫弟弟吃了。
My cake got eaten by my little brother.
杯子让小猫打破了。
The cup was broken by the kitten.
