Answer:

<em>"Sixteen"</em> by Maureen Daly is a short story that explores the theme of teenage life. Teenage period is a period which brings confusion, which is evident in the main character, a sixteen-year-old girl. She is an average teenage girl that follows the latest styles, reads the editorials and listens to the radio. However, she faces certain struggles and is not sure whether to follow her heart or reason. This is certainly an issue that many teenagers go through, as at this point in life, it is very hard to make decisions. Therefore, from the very title of the story, we can guess what it is about. The title indicates that a character from the story (probably the protagonist) is sixteen years old. In this way, the narrator gives us a clue that the story is centered around different struggles that he/she faces at this age.

Which one contains an infinitive?
Elan Coil [88]

The phrase that is infinitive is given in option (a): to go to the store. Therefore, "to" is the first word, "go" is the verb, and ends with the place "store."

<h3>What are infinitive phrases?</h3>

A combination of words known as an infinitive phrase includes an infinitive, a modifier, pronouns, direct objects, indirect objects, or complements of the action or state described in the infinitive.

Find the word to first, then look for the infinitive phrase. Second, it is an infinitive if the word immediately after to is a verb. Third, the infinitive phrase starts at to and finishes at the end of the sentence if it occurs in the midst of the sentence.

Alternative example:

Dawn assisted her friend in making a cake for his mother.

('Helped' is the "special" verb.) Her companion is the direct object. The bare infinitive of the infinitive phrase is "bake." A cake is its direct object. This time, the infinitive sentence also has an indirect object ("his mother").

Hence, option (a) contains infinitive.
