Answer 2

Answer:

Your duty is to cross the river without getting noticed.

Explanation:

1. To cross: is a non-finite verb. An infinitive, since infinitives are generally preceded by the preposition to.

2. Getting: is a non-finite verb. A gerund, since gerunds generally end with -ing and mostly, people get confused with participles and gerunds.

3. Noticed: is a non-finite verb. A participle, since participles are generally ending with -ed or -es. -ing is not an inclusion.

Second of all, you seem like you don't understand them much... Here I will show you what they are:

Finite verbs change their forms when there is a change in the number or person of the subject. Non-finite verbs do not change their form when the number or person of the subject changes. There are mainly three types of non-finite verbs: infinitives, gerunds, and participles.
