The purpose of the verb phrase in the sentence "You are invited to stay for dinner" is the predicate of the sentence.

The predicate refers to the part of a sentence or clause that makes clear what the subject does or is. To put it simply, the predicate is everything that is not the subject. It contains the verb of the sentence, that is, the predicate consists on the action that the person in the subject carries out.

In addition to the verb, a predicate can contain direct objects, indirect objects, and various kinds of phrases.

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

B. "The forest seemed interminable; nowhere did he discover a break in it, not even a woodman's road."

Foreshadowing is a literary technique used by many authors to anticipate a clue about information that will only appear in the text later, or information that the characters still do not know. Foreshadowing serves to make the reader curious about the consequences that anticipated information will have on the narrative. Among the options given in the question, the one with foreshadowing is the letter B, as the author anticipates the information that "the forest seemed endless" before the character realizes it.
