1. We decided to sail across the lake – Infinitive phrase.  

An Infinitive phrase is a sentence that uses an infinitive (to + verb ). Word that expresses action. “TO SAIL” would be the infinitive.


2. Tachels favorite pastimes are dancing and reading – Gerund phrase.

Gerunds are “ing” words. They always function as a noun. In this case the gerund would be “dancing and reading” accompanied by its modifiers.


3. We watched the children playing soccer – Participle phrase.

A participle is a verb ending in “ing” that modifies a noun. In this case “playing” would be the present participle which modifies the noun that in this case is “children”.

Part of Okonkwo's character arc can be described as an escalating series of _____.
Nataly_w [17]

Correct answer choice is :


A) Violent acts


Explanation:


Okonkwo is also recognized as a tragic hero. Okonkwo's tragic defect is his concern of instability and failure. In his thirties, Okonkwo is a leader of the Igbo society of Umuofia. Okonkwo seldom expresses his concern, however, because he worries that doing so would make him look ineffective. Furthermore, he hopes that Ezinma was a boy because she would have been the perfect son.
