C) But even this is admitting more than is true, for I answer roundly, that America would have flourished as much, and probably much more, had no European power had anything to do with her. thus option C is correct.

<h3>Why British rule of American colonies?</h3>

Although each colony had its own government, the British king maintained power over them. Many colonists were irate by the 1770s because they lacked self-government. This implied that they were unable to rule themselves and establish their own rules. The king demanded that they pay enormous taxes.

According to Paine's claim in Option C, America would have actually been better off if it had not been under British rule. According to him, America's progress and ability to prosper even more were really hampered by its rule by the British. Both options A and B make the case that America needs Britain to succeed. Option A claims that for America to be happy, a relationship with Britain is crucial. America is compared to a child in Option B. According to this, a child should never consume meat if they can get by on milk alone. America should therefore just require Britain. Although Paine evidently finds this absurd, the premise does not support the claim.

Which one contains an infinitive?
Elan Coil [88]

The phrase that is infinitive is given in option (a): to go to the store. Therefore, "to" is the first word, "go" is the verb, and ends with the place "store."

<h3>What are infinitive phrases?</h3>

A combination of words known as an infinitive phrase includes an infinitive, a modifier, pronouns, direct objects, indirect objects, or complements of the action or state described in the infinitive.

Find the word to first, then look for the infinitive phrase. Second, it is an infinitive if the word immediately after to is a verb. Third, the infinitive phrase starts at to and finishes at the end of the sentence if it occurs in the midst of the sentence.

Alternative example:

Dawn assisted her friend in making a cake for his mother.

('Helped' is the "special" verb.) Her companion is the direct object. The bare infinitive of the infinitive phrase is "bake." A cake is its direct object. This time, the infinitive sentence also has an indirect object ("his mother").

Hence, option (a) contains infinitive.
