Answer: "<u>To give</u> is one of the best things people can do. <u>Volunteering</u> their time shows what caring people they are".

Explanation: A gerund is a non-finite verb form that ends in -ing and functions as a noun. An infinitive is also a non-finite verb form, but it is formed with "to" and the simple form of a verb. Moreover, an infinitive can work as a noun, an adjective or an adverb. In the passage provided,<u> "giving" is a gerund because it ends in "-ing" and it is working as a noun;</u> therefore,<u> it must be transformed into an infinitive by adding "to" and writing the simple form of the verb: "give"</u>. Furthermore, <u>"to volunteer"</u> is an infinitive because it <u>is made up of "to" and the simple form "volunteer"</u>. "To volunteer" must be changed into a gerund by <u>deleting the "to" and converting "volunteer" into a gerund: "volunteering"</u>.

Julli [10]

Answer:

1. Jason Blake is an autistic 12-year-old who lives in a neurotypical environment. Most days, it is only a matter of time before anything goes wrong.

2. When Jason starts sixth grade, for the first time, he attempts regular public school. Until now, he has had a one-on-one assistant since his diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder in third grade.

3. Jason finds a glimmer of comprehension as he comes across PhoenixBird, who posts stories on the same online forum as he does.

4. Jason can be himself, as he writes, and he thinks PhoneixBird, whose name is Rebecca, may be his first true friend. But as anxious as Jason is to meet her, he's afraid that only if they see me can Rebecca see his sincerity.

5. Every day, Jason deals with the school's overstimulating climate, working closely with physical and speech therapists who help him deal with his autism. He mentions having trouble reading the facial expressions of other people, recognizing faces, and maintaining his wrath.

6. Jason's parents are surprising him with a trip to an upcoming Storyboard conference in Texas.

"lost in the woods" how does Tarshis describe the weather?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

In 'Lost in the Woods' Tarshis desribes weather by describing the atmosphere around, for instance, the weather was rainy which can be known through 'muddy trail.'

Explanation:

'Lost in the Woods' is a report of two kids who were lost in the woods in 2012.

The article was written by Lauren Tarshis. In her article, instead of directly describing the weather of woods, she describes the atmosphere of the woods.

The weather was rainy and dark. It can be known through 'muddy trail' on which volunteers were slipping over but it was Madee only who was sniffing around the muddy trail to locate the lost girls. When the girls were found, the weather described by Tarshis is dark, when she writes that the only light that shone in the forest were the headlamps that Madee and her owner, Greg, wore.
