1. Beatrice says that the purpose of the simplicity in her town's design is to help them forget themselves. The Abnegation have dull hairstyles and wear dull clothes, and they only eat dull food. They try to keep everything dull because they believe that forgetting yourself makes it easier to be selfless, as vanity causes selfishness.
2. When Beatrice is talking to Caleb, she hears the whistle of a dauntless train in the distance,and says that "it sounds like the Dauntless, calling me to them." She realizes that she wants to be free, and that she doesn't want to give up the part of herself that makes her Beatrice Prior. From this you can infer that she will most likely transfer to Dauntless at the choosing ceremony.
I think its "Eliza planned to take the train to the fairgrounds on Thursday afternoon" and "Travis practiced pitching to the side of the house until his mom got mad"
I picked those two because of the definition of an infinitive
"the infinitive is a grammar term that refers to a basic verb form that often acts as a noun and is often preceded by the word "to" "to sing" is an example of infinitive"
I hope this helps sorry if im wrong ^-^
Can you put the rest of the passsage
Neither, a metaphor would be like "I'm so hungry that I could probably eat an elephant," while a simile would have 'like' or 'as' to describe something.
