The infinitive is the base form of a verb that has no inflection binding it to a particular subject or tense. Some examples are to think, to be, to see. The infinitive verbs of the sentences are in bold:

2. I'm working to save up for some new music.

4. Denise likes to get her exercise by dancing

5. Dave has to walk the dog every morning.

Sentences number 1 and 3 do not contain an infinitive. The use of the preposition "to" here expresses motion or direction toward a point, person, place, or thing.

"Time is precious" is the title of the following story.

Explanation:

The story is as follows:-

Pihu was the only daughter of her parents. They were very rich. Pihu was a pampered child and became very ill disciplined and lazy because of her parents extra love and pamper. She never used to do complete her homework on time. She was never on time for any task given to her.

One day her grandmother came to visit them from the village. She was not very happy with Pihu's behavior. So, she decided to take care of her and teach her good things. To reform her, she decided to give her one task everyday. At the end of completion of each task, she would get a reward from the grandmother.

One day her Pihu was very hungry when she returned from school and wanted to eat food. Grandmother behaved very lazily to prepare food for her. Then after some time she cooked food for Pihu and took a long time to prepare it. This way she taught Pihu the value of time.

We should always do things on time. Grandmother explained that had she prepared before her coming from school, it would have saved time and Pihu would not have got stomach ache because of hunger. Pihu realized her mistake and promised to behave well and do things on time.
