Answer:

D. an adjectival phrase

Explanation:

The prepositional phrase for his team consists of the preposition for and the object of the preposition his team.

In a sentence, prepositional phrases can function in three ways: as a noun, as an adjective, or as an adverb.

If a prepositional phrase functions as an a<em>djective</em>, it is an <em>adjectival phrase</em>.

In this sentence, the preposition for is telling us the relationship between the team and the spirit. Since the word <em>spirit</em> is a noun, this is an adjectival phrase.

Once again:

the prepositional phrase <em>for his team</em> functions as an <u>adjective</u> because it modifies the <u>noun</u> <em>spirit</em>. It is an adjectival phrase.

<span>C.) it is wrong for Africans to live in worse conditions than white people under apartheid

The words in this passage that show how bad the conditions are are "sad, bleak and terrible." This shows how awful life is if you are not white, and what a shame it is if that is the only life you'll ever know.</span>

Revise the passage by changing all of the gerunds to infinitives and all of the infinitives to gerunds.
AnnZ [28]

On the one hand, a <u>gerund</u> is a verb that acts as a noun, know for the -ing form. On the other hand, an <u>infinitive</u> is the basic form of a verb, that usually follows  "to" or another verb form.  The revised sentence, including both of these, is:

"To give is one of the best things people can do. Volunteering their time shows what caring people they are."
