A. Christa chose to write a literary critique of the novel <em>Oliver Twist</em>.

An infinitive phrase will include the word “to” in addition to a verb. For instance, “to run,” “to sleep,” and “to laugh” are all infinitives. If the word “to” is followed by a noun, “to” would be a preposition. And, an object is the recipient of the action/verb. With that in mind, in Option A we can see that “to write” is receiving the action “chose,” which makes “to write” a direct object.

The only sentence here with an infinitive phrase is the first one, and the infinitive phrase there is 'to write'. You ask the question - What did Christa choose? in order to find the object of that sentence, and the answer is 'to write'.

Which statement would be an effective conclusion for the evaluation of an article on the potential threat of

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

I believe the best answer to be letter D) Therefore, Wilson's argument that technology makes it more difficult for students to concentrate is thoroughly

researched and provides ample supporting evidence.

Explanation:

We can choose the option above through simple elimination. Option A is not a conclusion at all; it seems to present the final argument of the article, which means it's still part of the development. Letter B presents a "weak" personal opinion which could be a conclusion if it weren't based on personal experience instead of on the arguments offered in the article. Letter C looks more like a thesis statement than a conclusion, in the sense that is presents the topic of the article but not what can be concluded from it. Therefore, letter D seems to be the best option. That is the conclusion of a person who read the article, their evaluation of it: that it was well researched and filled with solid evidence.
