Which sentence uses an infinitive as a noun?



A) The best movie to watch is coming on TV tonight at 9:00.
B) Phil wanted to play video games, but he finished his homework first.
C) The cheerleaders traveled to the away games to cheer for the football team.
D) Rachel is the kind of girl who is always happy to help anyone who needs it.
I believe it is C. but I could be wrong.
Answered by Writeacher
No, not C. The word "to" is being used as a preposition in that sentence. (prepositional phrase = to the away games)

Answered by Writeacher
Close, but still incorrect.

In A, "to watch" is being used as an adjective, modifying the subject "movie."
