To sleep late is a treat for Don, who has a paper route.

The phrase To sleep is an infinitive.

Gerund : Sleeping late is a treat for Don, who has a paper route.

What are Gerunds, infinitives, and participles?

Gerunds are words with the "ing" suffix that serve as nouns. By adding the "-ing" suffix, a verb can change from a verb to a noun, completely altering the word's meaning.

By including the word "to," the verb's simple form is transformed into an infinitive that can be employed as a verbal noun, adjective, or adverb.

A participle is a verb with one of the following ends, depending on the root word: "-ing," "-ed," "-en," "-d," "-t," "-n," or "-ne."

When a participle is connected by one or more nouns or pronouns, a participial phrase—a group of words—is created.

<u>The phrase</u><u> To sleep </u><u>is an</u><u> infinitive.</u>

<u>Gerund </u><u>: </u><u>Sleeping</u><u> late is a treat for Don, who has a paper route.</u>

Vikentia [17]

Incomplete question. However, I inferred you are referring to  May 14, 2015, theconversation online article by Manu Saunders a Post-doctoral Research Fellow (Ecology), at Charles Sturt University.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The article stresses the consequences of single-crop farming on wildlife survival in other to allow for biodiversity. Specifically,  she focuses on the impact of single-crop farming on wild pollinators such as native bees and hoverflies.

Therefore, according to Manu's research, this pollinators have restricted access to diverse resources as a result of single-crop farming; which leads us to the central theme; Single-Crop Farming Is Leaving Wildlife With No Room To Turn.
