The correct answer is C. Since the father likes taking risks in a game, he might like taking risks in life as well.

Explanation:

In reading, the process of inferring refers to ideas or points that can be concluded or guessed based on the information and details provided in a text, that do not explicitly state an idea but somehow suggest it. In the case of the excerpt presented, the author states a father and a sone were playing chess and in the case of the father played in a way that was risky as he is described as "putting his king into such sharp and unnecessary perils" situation that makes an old lady that is in the room or the same place make comments. These details show the way the father plays is particular and he seems to takes a lot of risks while playing, therefore it can be inferred he is a risky person and probably does the same in his life or that "Since the father likes taking risks in a game, he might like taking risks in life as well". Also, other details such as the age of the characters or the clothes of them are not provided which makes other options incorrect.

Answer:

its the kenny kane name for me

anyways

Although Kenny clearly wanted to buy the bigger pack, he eventually bought the smaller pack in the end.

Despite seeming very extroverted and outgoing, Kenny is shy and reserved when it comes to new people.

While Kenny may seem tired and lazy, his performance at work says so otherwise with being one of the company's best employees.

Which type of verb typically includes the word "to"? A. Past tense B. Present participle C. Infinitive D. Past participle
Cerrena [4.2K]

The type of verb that typically includes the word "to" is C. infinitive.

<u>The infinitive is the base form of the verb. Moreover, the present infinitive can have the form of "to-infinitive" </u>or the form of the "zero infinitive" (without "to"). <u>The first form is frequently used</u> and, for that reason, the infinitive typically includes "to". Furthermore, the "to-infinitive" can function as subject of the sentence, direct object and even as object complement. Some of the verbs that can be followed by a "to-infinitive" are refuse, propose, want and decide.
