We try to get caught up on sleep.
I saw the below sentence in a book.
1. We try to get caught up on sleep.
But in a dictioanary, there's a sentence like the below.
2. I hope to catch up on some much-needed sleep this weekend.
In sentence 1, is the passive voice possible compared to sentence 2 from a dictionary?
Thanks in advance.
