Answer: infinitive functioning as a noun.

Explanation: an infinitive is the basic form of a verb, without an inflection binding it to a particular subject or tense, it can serve as an adjective, an adverb, or a noun. In the given sentence we can see an example of an infinitive in the words "to follow" and, in this case, it are acting as a noun, specifically as the direct object of the sentence (it answers the question "what is his greatest ambition?").

Read the excerpt from the story Hummingbird and Heron:
GREYUIT [131]

Answer: Third person

Explanation:

A third person perspective means that the story looks like it is being narrated by a person that isn't one of the characters in the story. They will therefore use words like "they", "them" and "their" to describe the actions of the characters.

This is how the story above is presented so they are using a third person perspective. To be more precise, they are using a third person omniscient point of view which allows us to see the actions of all characters and not just one.
