(i) Rewrite the sentence using an infinitive :
She started competing at international level.
(i) Rewrite as an exclamatory sentence :

Answer 1

1. she started to compete at the international level

2. What a keen wrestler his father was!

Explanation:

• Sometimes instructions are given to change the given sentences in English grammar.

• The basic dictionary verbs are infinitive when they are used non-finitely.

• The exclamatory "!"  mark gives feelings to our sentences.

• We use an exclamatory mark to emphasize the important words o message or feelings.

• The exclamatory sentences are just declarative sentences, but a forceful version of declarative sentences.

Answer 2

(i) She started to compete at international level.

The "to-infinitive" verb is used to define the purpose or opinion about something.

The verb "to help" is an infinitive phrase. Since, there is "to" in the phrase, it is called as full infinitive.

(ii) What a keen wrestler is her father!

A sentence with strong emotion or forceful declaration is called exclamatory sentence.

This sentence always ends with exclamatory mark (!). It majorly conveys emotion and excitement.
