NOUN is the infinitive phrase used in this sentence.

What is an infinitive phrase?

"An infinitive phrase is a group of words consisting of an infinitive, a modifier or the use of pronouns, direct objects, indirect objects or complements of action or state expressed in the infinitive."

The infinitive phrase in this sentence is "to find shelter". The infinite phrase here is used as an object due to the fact that it is governed by the verb "ran". In literature, an object is defined as a noun/pronoun that is governed by a verb or even a preposition.

Hence the correct choice is NOUN.

Read the excerpt from act 1 of A Doll's House.
Agata [3.3K]

Answer is A. Nora realizes that Helmer will completely disapprove of her having borrowed money, so she has to continue to keep it a secret from him.

In the excerpt from Act 1, Nora agrees with Helmer's ideas about borrowing and debt. By saying "As you please, Torvald." she pretends not to care about such problem, as if she has never borrowed money from anyone. In fact, regarding Helmer's hypothetical death situation, she gives more importance to her loosing him than to the hypothetical debt. In this way, Nora successfully draws his attention away from his worry.

What happens to Becky? in chapter 13 of tom sawyer
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Tom decides that, unloved, he must run away and go into a life of crime. He happens on Joe Harper, who also seems upset: "Plainly, here were 'two souls with but a single thought.'" Chapter 13, pg. 80 Joe has just been whipped by his mother. Tom convinces him they should become pirates. They find Huck and make plans to head for Jackson's Island. They agree to meet at midnight. The rest of the day, they tell no one what they have planned, although they all hint that something is about to happen. At midnight, they take a raft and some fire and go to the island. As they sail down the river, Tom looks at the village and imagines Becky seeing him leave to live a pirate's life.

The boys land on a sandbar at the top of the island and leave the raft. They go into the forest and make a fire and get ready to camp. They eat some food they stole from town, and talk about how great being a pirate is. Huck makes a pipe out of a corncob and smokes. Tom and Joe tell Huck all the things pirates do--capture ships and treasure, kill men, kidnap women, and dress in fancy clothes. Huck is embarrassed at his rags, but Tom and Joe tell him that they will get fancy clothes later. Huck falls asleep quickly. Tom and Joe have more trouble. Although they don't talk, they both feel guilty about running away and stealing, because the Bible commands against it. It is only after they both decide that they won't steal again that they fall asleep.
