Answer: All sentences have an infinitive that takes the place of a noun.
Explanation:
- An infinitive is the basic form of a verb. It consists of <em>'to' + the verb form.</em>
- For example: to read, to write, to learn, etc.
- Infinitive is a verbal, which means that it is used as some other part of the speech. In this case, infinitive forms are used as nouns.
- Apart from the infinitives, <em>gerunds</em> (-ing forms) and <em>participles </em>(-ing and -en forms) are also considered as verbals. However, neither gerunds nor participles appear in the sentences given in this example.
Answer:
Mary tells John that if he testifies against her, she will "charge lechery" and ruin him. What does John decide to do? He tells Mary that they will both testify in court against Abigail. Although it will ruin him, he can't allow Elizabeth die.
Explanation:
The only correct form of the past participle can be seen in the second sentence - The picture has hung on the wall for years.
In the first sentence, it should be brought, and not brung.
In the third sentence, it should be worn, not wore.
In the last sentence, it should be written, not wrote.
Answer:
There are multiple occasions in <em>To Kill a Mockingbird</em> that influence Scout, Dill and Jem's maturity. The most important would be:
- Tom Robinson's trial and death.
The three children become aware of the racial intolerance present in their society, in all its cruelty. Tom Robinson is accused of physically assaulting Mayella Even, and found guilty, despite the insufficient evidence to prove his guilt.
- The story around Boo Radley.
Boo Radley, a mysterious neighbor who never leaves his house and strikes fear into the children, turns out to be the one who rescues Jem and Scout when Bob Ewell attacks them. The children learn not to believe everything they are told.
- The death of Mrs. Dubose.
Mrs. Dubose is a hostile neighbor that insults Jem and Scout. Angry at her, Jem cuts off her camellia bushes. When his father finds out, Jem is forced to apologize and to read to her every day after school. Mrs. Dubose is ill, and eventually dies. Her death reminds the children that this woman had a difficult life, and, by refusing to take morphine, tried to die with a shred of dignity.
