Identify the infinitive. James likes to eat pizza and listen to music.

Trava [24]

Infinitives in the English language are relatives easy to spot. You just have to locate the word TO followed by a verb.
Here, the infinitive is to eat.
There is another TO in the sentence (to music), however, the word music is not a verb, which means that to music is not an infinitive.

cestrela7 [59]

Answer and Explanation:

First, if we understand the meaning of each word, it will be easier to fill in the blanks. Let's take a look:

a. exonerate - clear, absolve, acquit

b. culminate - to reach a climax; to end in something

c. eminent - famous and respected at a certain field

d. persevere - to persist, to keep on, to continue

e. feasible - achievable, likely, practical

Now, let's complete each sentence. Let's also make any necessary changes:

1. I don't know if it is feasible to try to attend both the basketball game and the birthday party tonight. - No changes needed

2. Many of the city's premier artists and eminent businessmen attended the fundraiser. - No changes needed

3. The opening ceremonies of the Olympics culminated in a fantastic fireworks display. - It's best if we use the verb in its past form: culminate --> culminated

4. The football player was exonerated of all charges filed against him. - Let's use the past participle of "exonerate" since the sentence is in the passive voice --> exonerated

5. I admire Mitchell's perseverance despite his obvious physical handicaps. - this sentence needs a noun to complete the blank, so we need to transform "persevere" into a noun --> perseverance
