What can be correctly concluded based on this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich?At the law courts too, Ivan Ilyich noticed, or thought he noticed, a strange attitude towards himself. It sometimes seemed to him that people were watching him inquisitively as a man whose place might soon be vacant. Then again, his friends would suddenly begin to chaff him in a friendly way about his low spirits, as if the awful, horrible, and unheard-of thing that was going on within him, incessantly gnawing at him and irresistibly drawing him away, was a very agreeable subject for jests. Schwartz in particular irritated him by his jocularity, vivacity, and savoir-faire, which reminded him of what he himself had been ten years ago.



Ivan misses his former self before the fear of his impending death forced him to mend his ways.



Ivan looks forward to spending quality time with his friends, but not his family.



Ivan likes to share his innermost thoughts and feelings with his friends.



Ivan was pompous and fake until his impending death made him face the reality of his life.



Ivan found his friends to be caring and supportive during his illness after his bad fall.

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Ivan was pompous and fake until his impending death made him face the reality of his life.

Explanation:

In this excerpt, it is clear that Ivan Ilyich is rethinking much of what was normal about his life in the past. Now that he is sick and likely to die, he realizes that his friends were not actually as nice as he thought they were. They often joke about his disease, which Ivan does not enjoy. He is particularly bothered by Schwartz because he reminds him of how he was in the past, which leads us to think that Ivan was equally pompous and fake until his impending death made him face the reality of his life.

Answers

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'. 

A.  Christa chose to write a literary critique of the novel Oliver Twist.

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 answer is a. President.
