Explanation:
Active voice is when someone does something while passive voice is when something is being done by someone. Even though these sound different, the <em>same thing</em> is happening in the story; it's just written differently.
Active: "Johnny bit into an apple."
Passive: "The apple was bit into by Johnny."
These are the same action being performed but written differently, see? With active voice, the main subject is at the beginning. With passive the main subject is at the end.
"Let the assembly began" is passive. Let's switch that around to active. We know that the assembly is beginning.
"The assembly is being let to begin!"
There's the answer.
Romeo says that he wishes he were sentenced to death, because exile is worse than death.
After Romeo kills Tybalt the Prince sentences him to exile. He thinks he is being merciful, and the Friar tries to get Romeo to see that it's mercy, but Romeo thinks that living anywhere without Juliet would be worse than dying.

In "Writers often disavow the notion of a 'literary duty'" the author conveys a somewhat condescending attitude, as if they would always follow this and set aside anyone who said otherwise. This attitude says the author is looking down on them, and that the author believes that many authors do not meet their standards.
Another answer I would consider is "...writers ruined by their shrill commitments." However, there is no context or clear tone. The author could be mournful of the lost potential for all we know.

The details from the text that best support the conclusion that the author’s purpose is to inform are:
“I’d also like to demystify”
“I’d like to celebrate”
“I’d like to reveal”
Explanation:
The selected expression from “Fairy Tale Is Form, Form Is Fairy Tale,” by Kate Bernheimer shows that the author is going to present information that will be very important for the reader, the verbs that she uses are the key part that makes you deduce that it is an informative material, for instance, the ver "demystify" is to present real and reliable information that is opposite to the general and uninformed idea of many. "Celebrate" in this context does not relate to an event but to expose the information in a very positive and enthusiastic real way. Finally, " Reveal" is to show others what something is based on proof.
