Identify the following italicized word as a gerund, participle, or infinitive.
sveticcg [70]

In the sentence “The accountant desires to be honest rather than rich”, the type of verbal is “infinitive”. The infinitive form of a verb is preceded by the preposition “to” which in this case is “to be”.  

A gerund is a verbal acting as a noun and it is form by “verb+ing”. A participle is a verbal acting as an adjective and it is formed by past form of verb. So in this case the only answer that applies is “infinitive”

Why does abigail threaten the other girls??
PIT_PIT [208]
You're talking about the crucible right? Abigail Williams threatens the other girls because she wants the chaos of a witch hunt to ensue. If the girls spoke up, Abigail would be caught and John Proctor's wife Elizabeth would not have to pay for "stealing" John.
