To answer question, read the text below.
The Language of Performance
Well, the word “performative” is generally meant as an insult. It’s meant to trivialize and indicate that someone is play-acting or “faking it.” It suggests that someone is only doing something to be seen doing it, and not because it represents a sincere interest or enjoyment.
This is one of those situations in which metaphors are overextended, and language distorts rather than describes natural human behavior. It is normal for our species for men and women to “perform” acts to impress both our own sex and the opposite sex. Males and females have different sex “roles,” and we “perform” acts to satisfy those roles.
The language seems to “portray” us as “actors performing roles” and implies that we are all essentially “lying” or “faking.” This is the kind of wordcel wordtrap that lends itself to Marxist gender theory ideology and postmodernist thinking.
“Nothing is real, everything is fake. Everything is a performance.”
That’s a frame, but it isn’t the whole picture.
Men are primates. We imitate each other. Monkey see, monkey do. And yes, we do things to try to impress each other. You can frame that in a way that seems trivial or superficial, but it is also foundational to human nature and social hierarchy.

The author uses the passive voice sparingly and primarily for definitions (e.g., is generally meant), while shifting to a consistent active voice to build his core argument. Considering this stylistic choice, analyze the statements below:
I. Passive constructions tend to obscure the agent of the action, creating a sense of detachment.
II. Active verbs (such as those appearing in the second and third paragraphs) assign clear responsibility to the subject, making the critique feel more direct and assertive.
III. The use of active voice emphasizes that actions (like those mentioned in the fourth paragraph) are deliberate and intentional rather than passive occurrences.
IV. Extensive use of the passive voice would weaken the punchy, authoritative tone of the argument established throughout the text.

( ) The word essentially in the third paragraph functions as an intensifier but is not a superlative form.
( ) The expression the whole picture in the fifth paragraph is in the positive degree, not the superlative.
