English

The correct answer is A. "To err is human; to forgive is divine."

Explanation:

In grammar, an infinitive includes the preposition "to" and a verb in its bare form, for example, "to cook", "to live", etc. Additionally, infinitives can be used as subjects if these are the entities that perform the action or the entities described using a linking verb, for example, "To cry is useless".

According to this, the sentence that includes an infinitive as a subject is A. "To err is human; to forgive is divine" because in this the infinitives "to err" and "to forgive" are the entities described by the linking verb "to be" and therefore the subject in two different sentences.

What type of punctuation signals the reader that words from the direct quote have been changed but the writer ?
adell [148]

That would have to be an ellipsis. When you say something like, "There was only one catch, and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's own safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded (blah blah)"(Joseph Heller 46).

OR

,"There was only one catch, and that was Catch-22,...Orr was crazy and could be grounded (blah blah)"(Joseph Heller 46).
