Although the answers are given by the questioner, I would like to elaborate it.

First we need to understand what gerund, infinitive and participle are.

Gerund: "A verb form which functions as a noun." Its form is verb+ing. In the above three question, you can see there are two, which have verb+ing form; however, the one which is used as a noun is Climbing.

The answer of 1 is: Gerund.

Infinitive: "A verb form which functions as a noun." Its form is to + (base form of verb). In the above three question, you can see there is one, which has "to + (base form of verb)" form. "To complete."

The answer of 2 is: Infinitive.

Participle: "A verb form which functions as sometimes as an adjective and sometimes as a noun." Its form is verb+ing. In the above three question, you can see there is one, which has "verb+ing" form and serves as an adjective. "Roasting."

The answer of 3 is: Participle.

The answers are indeed

1. gerund

2. infinitive

3. participle

Explanation:

In the first sentence, "Climbing a rope is not as difficult as you might think," the subject is "climbing a rope". Climbing is the most important part of this subject. For the word "climbing" to be a subject, it must function as a noun in the sentence. The verb+ing form that functions as a noun is the gerund. Therefore, "climbing" is in the gerund.

In the second sentence, "I plan to compete in a chess tournament this weekend," the most important part of the object of the verb "plan" is "to compete". "To compete" is also functioning as a noun, but this time the verb form is to+verb, which is an infinitive.

In the third sentence, "Kali loves the smell of roasting garlic," we have a verb+ing form again. This time, however, "roasting" is not functioning as a noun, but as an adjective. It modifies the noun "garlic". In this case, we have a present participle form.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it.

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry.

i hope this !
