A participle normally ends in -ing or -ed. 
An infinitive is the simplest stem word of something.

An example of these would be running and run. Running is a participle and run is an infinitive. 

Because you now know this, you can immediately eliminate anything that does not say participle, since we now know running is one. You can eliminate the last two choices. They are wrong.

Running can only ever be used as an adjective and a verb, never a noun. Adjectives are used to describe nouns and verbs are used to describe action that a subject takes.

Could you help me find my running shoes? 

In this sentence, the subject is not running. The shoes are not literally running either. 

Could you help me find my running shoes? 

Running describes the word "shoes" making it an adjective. The shoes are being described as a pair of footwear the speaker wears when they go running.

This means that this is a participle functioning as an adjective.

It is first worthy to note that through his papers, Hamilton was advocating for the adoption of the constitution by the people of the United States. In this excerpt, the words that the author uses to tell us what will be taught are;

  • 'History will teach us'
  • The danger that he is trying to warn us about is that some people, more specifically, the anti-federalists and opposers of the constitution project themselves as supporters of the people whereas their main aim was the quest for power and recognition. Some others who presented unpopular messages like the federalists had the real interest of the people at heart.

In trying to get the people to believe in the messages of the federalists,

Hamilton warned the people that those who had a superficial or "special mask for the rights of the people" could be more dangerous than those whose ideas are presently rejected.

This second group has the interest of the nation at heart. He was among these federalists who were interested in the people.
