Question

read the paragraph.
the event lasted two days and was even more successful than we had anticipated. we washed more than one hundred cars and raised almost $1,000. now we are well on our way to finalizing our plans—a trip to the city to see a broadway play!
how does the infinitive phrase \to see a broadway play\ contribute to the text?

• it helps convey meaning about what happened in the past.
• it provides a specific detail about time and the topic of the text.
• it introduces the topic of the text by providing a direct object.
• it adds a specific detail about place that is relevant to the text’s topic.

Explanation:

The infinitive phrase "to see a Broadway play" is a specific detail about the trip (a place - related activity) which is relevant to the topic of finalizing plans (the trip). It is not about past events (so first option wrong), not about time (second option wrong), and the topic was already introduced (event, car - wash, raising money) so third option wrong.

Answer:

It adds a specific detail about place that is relevant to the text’s topic.
